Rocky is our latest rescue. He was so beat up with multiple wounds and is about to loose his left ear. He is feral and comes and goes. In bad weather will sleep on our back poach. We feed him and try to tend to his wounds but he has not let us pick him up to get him to the vet yet. Maybe soon. He is name Rocky because he is so beat up. We also have another rescue you will meet soon named Meow Meow.

What a story. Great capture of Rocky. #11305952frank w. degenhardt May 23, 2015
Good bless you Emile for taking care of these animals and giving them hope and a life of kindness. What stands out for me is the brown of his coat and the earth, then the way his eyes stand out in the more yellow color. Beautiful look my friend. #11306777Val Feldman May 23, 2015
Rocky, by the grace of God, turned the right corner and will finally find kindness and compassion at the Abbott home...and hopefully, trust once again. Bless your generous, loving heart, Emile. Just looking at that poor face breaks my heart - I hope he heals, with your help, both inside and out to be a fine, strong and healthy cat once more. Bless you! #11307111Patrick Rouzes May 24, 2015
You captured the eyes & the scared looked superbly, Emile. I hope he warms up to you so you can help him. You're a great fellow, my friend. #11307446Emile Abbott May 25, 2015

He was lucky to get in to your family. I think he will become comfortable and show how handsome he is. Great capture, Emile! (I am late in commenting, to many things are happening here, few good ones...) #11311464Emile Abbott June 01, 2015
