I’ve always loved cats and kittens, and once I met Tommy Cat, who is blind, he made me even more smitten with special needs cats. I learned that he was not born that way but was very sick as a kitten and had such bad eye infections that they had to be removed. Through it all, he was adopted by Christy and Tony Santoro who recognized Tommy’s special personality and worked with him to become a registered therapy animal! Tommy is so loved by all the lives he touches with his visits to schools, hospitals, nursing homes, etc. He is the purrfect mascot for his namesake foundation, which cares for and provides lifelong sanctuary to many special needs cats and kittens ❤️
