The last thing Gwen Cooper ever imagined was adding another feline to her family. With two cats already, a low-paying job, and a recent heartbreak to recover from, the idea of taking on more responsibility seemed impossible. But then, her veterinarian called with a heartbreaking story about a three-week-old kitten who had been abandoned and abused, and had to have his eyes surgically removed. Gwen was his last hope for a loving home. When she laid eyes on the tiny ball of fur, black and trembling, she knew she had to take him in. Despite knowing the challenges he would face due to his blindness, Gwen made the decision to adopt him. And so, Homer entered her life, becoming the eyes through which she would see the world.
Named after the blind Greek poet Homer, creator of the Odyssey, this little kitten grew into a strong, confident, and playful cat. Homer's unwavering loyalty, boundless love, and determination to overcome obstacles inspired Gwen to make a major life change - pursuing her dream of moving to New York City. Homer showed her that strength, resilience, and courage can come in the most unexpected forms.
As Gwen's bond with Homer deepened, she met the man she would eventually marry. It was then that she realized the most important lesson Homer had taught her - that love is not something that can be seen with the eyes. Homer's story is a testament to the power of love, and a reminder that sometimes the most extraordinary companions come in the most unexpected packages.
