    Mission accomplished, ladies and gents. Thank you so much for your kind words and support. I've never undertaken something with so many odds against me, and came through not only a better, smarter, more resilient person, but also have it succeed as well as it did. All with the help of countless extraordinary people of TW and Abysinnian Cat Rescue. Neither me, nor Ramsey could have done this alone, and you guys gave us the strength and courage to keep on truckin' :)

    He's lost a significant amount of weight...it was very hot there during the day, and little to no food around. He's frail, and injured from what looks like the barbed wire cutting his stomach a bit...claws are dull, paws are burnt from the hot ground and looking pretty raw, but other than that, he ate plenty of food, drank plenty of water, and even played with his canine companion a bit before climbing into bed. I'm taking him in for a complete checkup tomorrow, just to cover all the bases.

    But for now, I'm going to sleep a little easier tonight...knowing he's right there beside me. The way it should be.
