Courage the kitten's broken tail fell off. We were very lucky that the wound was already well scabbed over with no bone exposed, so she will probably not need surgery. She will just look like a little Manx once the wound heals.
The puppy is Wookie, who is being fostered in the same home as Courage. Foster mom Rita has a soft spot for "special" animals, and it doesn't get much more special than Wookie! I think he has the strangest face I've ever seen on a puppy. He is blind in one eye and has toes that sometimes curl under on the front foot on the same side as the eye; Rita says she fostered a kitten once with the exact same issues, and the vet said it was a developmental deformity. Wookie is also special because he is a cool dude. He has an easy-going, laid back, happy temperament, and lets Rita's little granddaughters hug him like a teddy bear.
