Hands down to the owner who is incredibly patient with a poor kitty that he adores. It took overall 4 years and more for Chataro the cat to have the most magnificent transformation like right now. He is now living contently with his kind-hearted owner James R. Jones and leaves the ugly past behind.

Chataro, when he arrived unannounced 4 years ago
“Chataro turned up outside our house about 4 years ago, covered in fleas and ticks, and infected so badly with mange that his skin was like stone. Turns out that he also has feline leukemia and massive infections in one eye and several of his teeth.” – James shared.
He had trouble even standing

With the best efforts and sacrifices that he could possibly give to a little injured cat, everything paid off deservingly. After the surgery for his ‘snaggle-tooth face’, Chataro became better every single day. But the most important part which made James surprised was Chataro was more like a loving and affectionate feline than he thought.
“I thought that he’d never socialize, being as how life had treated him so badly, and, man, was I ever wrong? He’s loving and sweet and could purr for the Olympics.” – he said.
These days, he’s the best bud and doing a whole lot better
With love, everything has got to be healed. Chataro the cat is living proof for what James has given to him. They have been more inseparable since James works from home.
“We’re always together in the same room, where he sits on the desk staring at me, and from time to time climbing into my lap when he thinks I need a break or there might be the chance of a treat for him.” – James shared.
