Tandy - the Hostel Cat

Tandy has been living in India House since he was born. He is a true survivor, having lived through several accidents and Hurricane Katrina. His last challenge has been a tumor in his leg which made it necessary to amputate the leg. But even with only three legs, and aged a respectful 18 years, Tandy remains strong and on guard.

Taj has joined Tandy shortly after Katrina. We saved him from a hungry and cold life in the streets.

Please take a moment to browse through Tandy's life in pictures (click on the image to see a larger version).
