Captain Jack aka One-Eyed-Jack

Captain Jack aka One-Eyed-Jack

I'd like to introduce you to the newest member of the Sally Jane Vintage staff, Captain Jack. Jack was a stray that was picked up by a kind stranger and dropped off at the local Humane League shelter. He was in pretty bad shape from his time living on the street but the people at the shelter gave him lots of care and kept him for several months while he recovered. As of Sunday he has a new home with us. He may only have one ear and one eye but he's got a keen sense of fashion and loves to help while I take photos.

Hi! Long time lurker - first time poster....but one thing that is definitely going to get comments from me is a kitty! And yours is just beautiful! I too would have chosen the most unfortunate kitty of all in the shelter out of fear that no one else would love him. But he is very handsome and huge!
That aside - I do love all your fashion - I wish I could pull off vintage as well as you do :-)

awwwwwwwwwwww, he is soooo sweet! a few weeks ago i visited a sanctuary. there i saw a beautiful red cat that only had one eye, but i totally fell in love with him. unfortunately i couldn't take him with me, because my cat hates other male cats.

Welcome to your new home Capt Jack, you're a handsome fella, and it looks like you've found a loving Mum and your own fan club, sign me up as a member : )

Louise said...

One eye perhaps, but what an eye it is! I think he's beautiful. Black short haired cats are so velvty looking. Haha you make me feel a little less stupid for always having cat photos sneaking their way onto my blog...

Oh, he's adorable. Our old cat only had one ear--two eyes, but one ear...she was a rascal though and died of old age when she was older than me--my sisters' teased she was in the family longer.

What we four say said...

Aww what a special guy! Super sweet and cute! I look forward to more shots of the pirate cat!

Mavis Ang said...

chantilly said...

awww, i have such a soft spot for animals. i'm sooo glad you adopted him! i commend you for taking in a little guy who's not exactly "perfect," also. yay!

Adiel | Rose Gold Lining said...

Oh wow, he's adorable. If I hadn't become allergic to cats as an adult, I would want one just like him! I love black kitties!

Stephanie Dee said...

I'm all misty eyed, he's amazing I love Captain Jack! I have three cats, two of them are rescues, so it really touches my heart when I see others adopting.

SnapandPrint said...

Gorgeous kitty! He looks so very helpful in the photo as well. I bet eh takes some great shots when he gets his paws on the camera and also proves to be a great stylist.
