Cats Really Do Have Nine Lives



I read this article about a cat named Bart who was hit by  a car.  I really did read this article in the Tampa Tribune.  It was written on April 18, 2015. Well,  Bart was hit by this car and his owner could not handle burying him so he ask a friend to bury the cat in a grave near the road where he got hit. Well guess what a few days later Bart, the cat, showed up a lot worse for wear but alive and hungry. Bart had a broken jaw, a ruptured eye and a torn-up face, but he was alive, dehydrated and hungry. And Hutson wasn't sure what to do.
The owner, Mr. Hutson, did not know what to do as he did not have a lot of money and the vet bills were going to be well over $1000., he contacted a vet before he contacted the Humane society, who paid out a fund they had for just such cases for all of Bart's medical bills. 
He went through surgery on Tuesday Afternoon and will fully recover in about six weeks,  He had to have his jaw wired shut, one eye removed, a feeding tube.
This cat was determined to live. How he must of felt being buried alive. It was not his owners or the guy who buried him fault as they took vitals and he had none they assumed he was dead.  What kind of determination and fortitude does it take to claw yourself out of a grave and go home.  I think I have heard it all now.
