Chase No Face, The Cat Without a Face

Chase No Face is a cat that was involved in an accident five years ago, leaving her face disfigured.

Here’s the scoop from Reddit:

My name is Chase. I am 2 years and 3 months old. When I was 3-6 weeks old, in June 2005, I was hit by a car and left in the road. A young man heard my cries after a few days and came to my rescue…I ended up having a back leg amputated and over the summer my nose and, eyelids, and skin from my face sloughed off from the trauma of the accident. The wonderful doctors sent me and Melissa to the University of Tenn Vet Hospital for 2 rounds of plastic surgery. Unfortunately neither attempt was successful. I would have to live looking different than my other kitty friends. I adjusted fast and even though I don’t have eyelids I can still sleep just fine but I prefer to go to a dark room or under the bed…I need a bit of special attention to keep my eyes in good shape. I get artificial tears applied to them 3-4 times daily, as well as antibiotic drops and steroid drops as needed. I have GREAT vision and love to catch flies and crickets! My face looks pink but it is just tissue and the fur will never grow back. I am NOT IN ANY PAIN! I am a very loving and friendly cat.

According to Chase’s blog, she’s healed and not in any pain. The internet has been a glow with links and posts about Chase. Here’s a list of where you can learn more:
