He keeps meowing about capturing the Avatar.

"While you capture the avatar, I'm going to capture another slice!" - OP probably

u/ebonylestrange 1d ago

You need to get him a little Aang toy so he can do it!

63

u/scarredcats 1d ago

lol thats an awesome idea. Is there any Aang plushie out there?

26

u/estherika1603 1d ago

There actually is 👍🏼

5

u/ChibiJaneDoe 1d ago

Do you happen to have another cat with an arrow-shaped mark on his forehead? If so, I think I might know why he wants to capture the Avatar all of a sudden.

5

u/scarredcats 1d ago

No, I still need to capture/rescue a cat like that!

3

u/ChibiJaneDoe 1d ago

I'm sure one exists. Otherwise there would be no Avatar to capture. And that's not going to suit the Fire Nation well, is it?

Thank you! He is up for adoption. If you happen to be in Brazil and find yourself wanting a new cat, hit me up!

u/igalonzo 1d ago

I would in a heartbeat! But I do live in the states 🥲 from here I can only ask you to make sure he is loved!

u/LiterallyNoNamesFree 1d ago

So are you uncle iroh now?

26

u/yrvatheloser 1d ago

Can he close his eye? It kinda looks like it’s stuck pulled open by the surrounding skin. Hopefully it doesn’t cause his any pain.🥺

44

u/scarredcats 1d ago

Yes, he can! He doesnt need to use eye drops or anything! It looks kinda rough, but he doesnt feel any pain from it.

u/Cat-Lover20 1d ago

u/Pelagaard 1d ago

Does his eye close completely still, or was there too much tissue damage/scarring?

6

u/scarredcats 1d ago

It actually does! He doesnt need to use eye drops or anything! It looks kinda rough, but he doesnt feel any pain from it.

4

u/Pelagaard 1d ago

Excellent news

6

u/One-Earth9294 1d ago

He looks like he's about to torture a confession out of James Bond

4

u/DinioDo 1d ago

He has so much aura!

3

u/ShamefulElf 1d ago

Okay he is cute but I must ask out of curiosity, but what is with his eye? A battle scar? If it's okay to ask of course.

5

u/scarredcats 1d ago

He had Sporotrichosis, a really aggressive and contagious fungal disease that has become a big problem here in Brazil. I do volunteer work rescuing and treating sick cats. Zuko is one of my rescues!

3

u/ShamefulElf 1d ago

Is his eye better now? Sound awful to have. Happy to hear your helping cats

3

u/scarredcats 1d ago

Yes, he is cured and 100% fungus free! The disease affects their whole body. The fungus basically eats the cat alive. Its awful!

4

u/ShamefulElf 1d ago

Omg that is terrifying, good to hear he is completely free

4

u/Sharp_Mathematician6 1d ago

His scars on the wrong side

u/Dense_Ease_1489 1d ago
