All rescue stories are beautiful, but this one is especially so. Give a big warm hello to Pinocchio, the blind cat who was rescued from an airport. When he was found, he had severely infected eyes. The doctors had to remove his eyes to keep the infection from spreading. It was a hard decision, but Pinocchio bravely went through the operation and faced his new challenges with hope. While in foster care, he made a special friend. Jiminy Cricket came into his life and they hit it off right away. The best part of this story is that the boys were adopted – together! Pinocchio has his very own seeing-eye brother! How awesome is that? Their heartwarming story will certainly put a smile on your face!!

Stories like this are worth sharing! Pinocchio shows us how important it is to never give up and Jiminy is a wonderful example of unconditional love.
We love a happy ending – don’t you? 🙂
