awesome picture. love this site.

I think my uncle had some pants that color in 1973.

if i were to venture a guess i would say this cat took residence here after the hospital was out of order i dont think anyone would let a cat go to the bathroom all over so my guess it is not the work of a human. its not from starvation judging from the poop this was a very well fed cat. i would also say this was not the work of another animal because if another animal killed it it it would have consumed the cat not just killing it for the thrill of the chase. i doubt from a fall or the cats legs would be splayed straight out in an attempt to land on its feet as all cats do. if you look at any mummified cat thats been in heat its mouth is always open due to skin shrinkage. i would say this was just a stray using the hospital as a place to stay maybe out of the sun or rain. it went in the most comfortable place to die and probably died a peacefull death. as far as being upside down in the drawer i would say it was moved after death for some reason possibly to make room for something where it looks like a place was cleared of both cat and fecal matter possibly by the hobo... so take a deep breath im sure this cat had a very free & fulfilling life and peaceful death.

Nice architecture

My mom was stricken with Polio and was pregnant with me....I was born in an iron lung..almost 60 yrs ago..My mom was not so lucky she did not survive a day after I was born..

Thank you for this site it sure has opened my eyes!
Makes me sad to think that this is where my mother was...must not be easy to be in one.
God bless all of you that have had polio and managed to overcome most of what this horrid disease does.

Thanks again in so many ways..

For myself personally, it is a reflection back to how things were when I was a kid. having kids of my own, personally I would never put them in a place like this no matter what the situation. I still often wonder what had happened to the staff and kids that I knew when I was there and how they are now.

Thanks for the photos Motts wonderful as always...I so look forward to more......

Its terrible what they did to the front of that building. Its so wrong on so many levels. How sad really. I agree they have no respect period. Nice shot though Motts. Thanks for the info above too. Very informative as always.

Very beautiful celing...wonderful...love it...what a shame its going to go to waste. How very sad.....

Its probably good that you don't leave any calling cards behind. I'm sure theres some strange people that hang around those lonely old buildings. The graffiti is nice so why don't they do it on canvas instead of a wall......better than defacing a building.....

Great shot Motts!!!

It is beautiful...why don't they use the whole building....................makes no sense to me.......

Doesnt it just look so ......inviting. Almost as if to say just climb in and ill make you into alcohol

Thats interesting , Motts. I wonder why they don't use all of the building? Too much $$ to fully renovate the whole thing? Interesting....

reminds me of middle school *shivers*
