A Change of Luck for a Down and Out Boy




This handsome little Himalayan cross has been hanging and sleeping under the deck at the home of a kind and generous PFA volunteer, Katherine, for several months. He didn't seem to want to use the shelter she made for him, so - concerned for his well-being in this extreme cold - she took action and brought him inside today.

Katherine also took him to the vet and had him treated for SIX severe abscess wounds, and also for worms and mites. Thankfully, this little guy also tested negative for FLV/FIV, despite his numerous scabs and scars.

He is a two year old male Himalayan cross. He is skinny, dirty and beat-up but his luck has changed for the better and he is on his way to the good life.

One he's had a chance to heal up, we will get him neutered and list him for adoption. In the meantime, we are so grateful to kind people like Katherine who look out for strays like this guy.
