Welcome!

This blog was created in honor of Khan, the Warrior Cat, to provide his fans with updates and information on his progress. Khan was rescued by Shadow Cats in Round Rock, Texas in 2006, after being hit by a car and found wandering the highway. He underwent several surgeries performed by Dr. Roy Smith at the Central Texas Cat Hospital to restore his smashed jaw, remove his damaged eye, and restore mobility. He still had damaged ears from years of infections, neurological problems, only two teeth, and spinal injuries that affected his gait, but he had a great spirit. He got to know many people, and many others heard his story, during the time he stayed at Shadow Cats and the two years during which we were blessed to have him in our home. This blog is dedicated to them, to all of those involved in his rescue, and to anyone who has helped a cat in desperate need.

Hill's Contest Update

Unfortunately, Khan's story was not selected by Hills to be a finalist for the Second Chance contest. However, if you'd like to vote for another rescued animal's story (and give their chosen shelter an opportunity to win a $10k donation and free food), you can go to this link during the month of November: http://www.hillsvet.com/hillspet/minisite/minisite.hjsp?FOLDER%3C%3Efolder_id=1408474395185663&bmUID=1193546197509. You must register on the Hill's site in order to vote.

Well, I did vote for Sophie. But I cant believe Khan was not a finalist. He certainly should have been!
Well, forget it Khan. We all think YOU are a winner!
Love, all of us at Shadow Cats!

It didn't seem to me that the stories chosen really strongly represented a "second chance," except in that they were adopted from shelters. Khan truly got a new life when Shadowcats found him! I voted for Sophie too, and Pux the dog (because I want to support older adoptions). But I am disappointed in the way the contest was described, and carried out.
