Not sure how many of you will remember tigerbabys Capone? He was originally Buster and came to Blackpool Cats in Care after a larger organisation signed him over as they weren't prepared to pay for his treatment. He'd been involved in an RTA and was left at the side of the road on a horrible rainy night with his back end totally damaged. Capone showed massive resilience and after it initially being thought he might have to live life as an indoor only he proved more stubborn than everyone thought and made a complete recovery!

Seems even tigerbabys partner finds him inspirational. :)

I thought that was just a nickname, his new name with them was Capone originally.

His name is still Capone, but everyone calls him Smellbear, or Smellby for short.

I'm very proud of that interview!! :)
