As anyone who has ever had to deal with the myriad of medical maladies that can afflict them, cats are fragile. Conversely, they can be tough little bastards. I saw that years ago when Fingers was still an outdoors farmcat, stoically shrugging off a neck wound that would have utterly ruined a human. And Buddy the cat, set upon by two pit bulls and two “humans,” manages to continue to fight to survive.

Buddy the cat is ‘hanging in there’ after vicious attack by 2 dogs in Philly

There is a brief Facebook video embedded there showing that he is up and about, kneading. That would seem to be a good sign.

No word as yet whether the perpetrators have been found.
