Oscar is something else! Handed in to the emergency animal hospital in Cheadle because he was dragging his front left leg, not microchipped and no amount of advertising could find his owner. Further investigations diagnosed irreparable nerve damage so ‘off with his leg’ from the shoulder down. He’s over that now but there are still a few scabs to heal and the fur to grow back but he’s ready to move to his new home. He’s learning to cope with the loss of his leg and, at the moment, tries to jump places he can’t achieve.
A lovely lad whose mojo is returning daily, on first contact he gives a half hearted hiss followed by a series of little cries. It’s then only a matter of seconds before he’s purring away. He is the most adorable cat ever and the first people to meet him will fall in love.
Despite being a tri-ped Oscar has used his tray reliably from day one, is not fussy about food and, other than having to heal his leg, has been healthy throughout his stay with us. He’s now ready and looking his new home.
As with all our cats, Oscar has been vaccinated, wormed, flead, microchipped, and neutered before homing. To help offset these costs we respectfully ask for a minimum donation of £100 towards the cost of veterinary treatment.
