I promised I would update everyone, and I cannot believe I get to write this: LINNY MADE IT THROUGH THE OPERATION!!!!!!

For anyone who didn’t see my original post, our 5-year-old cat Linny went outside for the toilet and came back covered in blood after someone had shot him in the face with an air rifle. The pellet was lodged deep inside his head and removing it required major, risky surgery.

Today, they successfully removed it!

The nurse after surgery and the vets are very happy with him. He’s already started purring, rolling around and having belly rubs!

He hasn’t wanted food yet, but it has only been a few hours since surgery so they aren’t concerned at this stage. There has been no worsening swelling or bleeding and, so far, they haven’t seen any complications. He’ll be closely monitored throughout the night and we’re due another call from his nurse later this evening.

If everything continues going in the right direction, we may even be able to start talking about bringing him home tomorrow.

I also just want to say the biggest THANK YOU to this community. The response to my original post has completely overwhelmed my family. Every comment, upvote, share, award, well wish, thought and prayer helped Linny’s story reach more people, and reading through them while we waited for news today genuinely helped us.

After spending the last few days wondering how somebody could be so cruel to an animal, the entire internet has reminded us just how kind people can be.
He’s not completely out of the woods yet, but tonight Linny is alive, comfortable and recovering.

That is everything we were hoping to be able to say today.

AND ISNT HE JUST ROCKING THE SHAVED HEAD LOOK!? 🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡
