โก๏ธ 151 DAYS IN SHELTER โ TOO LONG โ TIME IS RUNNING OUT โ WAYYYY BEYOND URGENT
โก๏ธ BACKBERRY IS ON THE EPL FOR MEDICAL REASONS - He is a mildly overweight adult male cat that had one episode of urethral obstruction. He was successfully unblocked on 1/2 and now his kidney values have normalized. However, he is still not eating and requires continued supportive veterinary care to help him recover. Behaviorally, he is timid but allows all handling. Previously, Blackberry was in foster and reported to be shy but social with a slow approach. NOT EATING IS A DEATH SENTENCE IN THE SHELTER - This evaluation/diagnosis means that BLACKBERRY will be given very little time for rescue/foster/adoption.๐ฅ๐ฅ๐ฅ๐ฅ
My foster writes: Blackberry is a sweet batman looking cat that is looking for someone to give him some time and space to come out of his shell. He definitely is a shy boy, that has better social skills with other cats than with people. This shouldn't be interpreted as him not wanting love, as once he gets comfortable, he will be calling you from across the room. He is the biggest softy cat I've met. From Foster to future parent, I will say some scratches behind his ear will go a long way. He has this funny tendency of dropping all his body weight if you continuously scratch him in this spot. Also pays more attention to strings than any other type of toy (except some catnip smelling toy mouses) What my friends at ACC say about me: I have lived with cats in my previous home. I would appreciate slow introductions to new people and places to help me feel safe. I prefer to call the shots and enjoy coming to you when I'm ready for pets. โค๏ธ ๐ปโค๏ธ ๐ปโค๏ธ ๐ป
