This abandoned tomcat struggled to survive on the streets for six years, and it showed. A woman was motivated to fight for him because of the terrible grief in his eyes, and a year later, that unhappy look is completely gone.
It’s almost as if every hard day in the alleys was inscribed on this cat’s face.
He was six years old when he was rescued by a local animal rescue organization, and he had substantial health issues, including scars, a significant eye injury, and feline immunodeficiency virus.
He was given the name Bruce Willis by the volunteers because they assumed he was a warrior, like many of the actor’s performances.
Over the years, no one was interested in adopting him.
He was even included in the Animal Humane Society’s Forget-Me-Nots section, and his story was publicized on social media. Bruce’s melancholy eyes delved into people’s hearts and tugged at their heartstrings.
Sandra was one of them, having discovered a snapshot of him on Instagram and falling deeply in love with him on the spot.
But the romance was doomed from the start: her landlord refused to let her have any pets!
Sandra couldn’t get “Mr. Willis”, as she affectionately calls him, out of her brain.
“He seemed worse in person, and I had to leave after only a few minutes because he was so devastating,” she said.
But she kept returning.
Mr. Willis developed a respiratory infection.
“I kept hoping someone would take him in,” Sandra added. So she acted – and “Mr. Willis” acted.
She begged her landlord for a break. After a month, she got the go-ahead. Bruce Willis had a house!
