A photo posted on Twitter by the Humane Society of Tampa Bay shows Bart, who was scrawny and disheveled a year ago after being hit by a car and buried, now with full, beautiful fur. He has put on some weight, too, almost too much weight, said Humane Society Director Sherry Silk.
The photo was taken of Bart when he came in for a checkup recently. He is now staying at a foster home with two other cats and they all get along well, Silk says.
Bart has been in the custody of the Humane Society for about a year while they try to get custody to find him a home. The case is currently in court because his owner, Ellis Hutson, refuses to give up ownership.
Although a custody battle may take some time, Bart, the Zombie cat, already has a reliable and caring foster parent that takes a good care of this special needs cat. After the legal proceeding, he will be ready for adoption and able to find his permanent home and a new family. Until then, he will take its time to recover fully, because he is not as firm and strong as he was before the accident. Even though his owner does not want to give up from Bart, the Humane Society of Tampa Bay thinks that he is not reliable enough to properly take care of the cat with special needs. They think that the best option for Bart is to be adopted again. So, let us see how it will turn out in the end.
