A stray orange tabby in Houston earned the nickname Cupid this week after he survived a piercing shoulder to shoulder wound, KHOU reports.The 2-year-old feline managed to elude neighborhood residents for about three days before being captured by a member of BARC -- the city rescue group -- and taken to the Brittmore Animal Hospital.Dr. Amanda Taylor took x-rays and determined that there was no paws for concern before surgically removing the weapon.This definitely wasn t an accident. An orange cat doesn t look like something you hunt for. Luckily, this kitty is a tough one and came out OK, said Taylor, according to local reports.Dr. Taylor added that no vital organs were harmed and that Cupid is expected to make a complete recovery.
