Whitby Wildlife Sanctuary in Yorkshire, UK, normally takes in injured foxes, badgers, squirrels, and birds, but they occasionally serve feral cats and dogs who need help. They were brought a kitten that had been found with his feral mother and siblings. The kitten couldn't see due to infected eyes. Veterinarians worked to remove one badly-damaged eye and save the other, but ultimately neither eye could be saved. During the surgery, the kitten received plasma from a dog named Bruno, and so he came to be named Bruno as well.
With the infected eyes removed, Bruno was no longer in pain, but it would be very difficult to find a home for him. As Bruno recovered from surgery and showed his winning personality, one of the veterinary surgeons who cared for him decided to adopt him. Now Bruno is an indoor cat and is adapting well to his forever home. -via Fark
