Sweet William

Sweet William, or Billy for short, is available for adoption in Northern Virginia, USA, through HART

Billy has a special guardian angel watching over him. Shortly after I took his first kitten photo (below) he became gravely ill and survived a brush with death. The docs had trouble making a diagnosis. He was so anemic they couldn't do all of the needed testing. On the suggestion of a couple of people, his foster mom asked that he be tested for Haemobartonella and that was what the problem was. It is not an easy disease to survive and poor little Billy was just a teeny tiny thing. Little Skittles was Billy's companion through his recovery and it is hoped that the two can be placed in a home together. Today, you'd never know that Billy had ever been sick.
