Church

My story

Church was first brought into the shelter as a cat in a near emergency state. With no hair on his front legs, a nose that was dripping mucus, and a clear injury to his jaw and face that caused his breath to come out raspy and labored, we weren't sure if he was going to make it. He began a rigorous course of antibiotics and antifungals, was spoon-fed the generously donated pate by his fosterer, and showed us that he was stronger than we thought. His fur has grown back entirely now, showcasing his gorgeous dilute/gray coat. Due to the lasting effects of the old injury which clearly permanently injured his nasal passages, Church will likely always have some issues with mucus drainage and nose irritation. His breathing will also always be a little more noticeable and audible. However, he now eats dry food all on his own, is an affectionate and gentle cat, and his unique, birdsong-like trilling meow is a welcome indicator of his good mood and fondness of whoever is giving him attention. Church is a talkative kitty! This older gentleman is now looking for a patient and loving adopter who will not be bothered by having to give him just a little more TLC.
