RICHMOND, Va. (WRIC) — A tabby cat named ‘OJ’ is on the road to recovery!
WFXR’s sister station, WRIC, first reported on OJ back in May after learning that the cat had been living for months with a bullet in his neck.
However, thanks to thousands of dollars in community donations — almost $6,000 — OJ was able to receive surgery to remove the bullet.

Now, the cat — nicknamed the “king of the neighborhood” by a resident in the Lakeside community in Richmond — is on the road to recovery in his new home in Baltimore.
