Spanky
Domestic Short Hair (short coat) · Senior (9 years 11 months) · Male · Spring Lake, NJ
Notes from Rescue Ridge
Spanky lost his home. He almost lost his life. Now he needs someone to love him. He is one of five senior cats who have already experienced more heartbreak than any cat should have to endure. His beloved owner passed away, leaving behind 9 cats who had nowhere to go. They were brought to a veterinary office to be euthanized.
Before Rescue Ridge could get there, two had already lost their lives. But then came a Hail Mary.
Rescue was able to step in and save the remaining 7 cats. Two have since been adopted.
His exact age is not known but he is estimated to be 10 years young. Despite having his world turned upside down he is a sweet, loving boy who loves to be petted. He does not understand why he was left behind and he does not why his person is not coming back. But we can give him a new beginning. He may be a senior, but that doesn’t mean his story should be over. In fact, maybe his best chapters are still waiting to be written. Spanky deserves a warm bed. A sunny window. Gentle hands. A Full food bowl. He deserves to be loved for exactly who he is. And most of all he deserves to know what it feels like to be home again. His buddies are also available for adoption. Big Boy, Figaro, Lucy and Slick.
