About Champ (Domestic short hair) in Cumberland County

Champ is waiting for you at Helping Animals Rescue Team in United States. There is a perfect cat in everybody’s local community that can match up with their needs and wants if they make an effort to find it. Some people want kittens. Some people want young adults and some people particularly want a senior cat or one with special needs. Champ is one of those cats who is both a senior (13 years old ) and has a special dietary need whose daily needs are actually easy to meet if you are willing. He arrived at the county animal shelter after being surrendered by a family that knew he had a condition known as mega colon. They even took in a bag of his prescription dry food and let staff know that he needed wet food daily. Unfortunately, they took him in when he was scruffy looking and needed a bath and a trim. The shelter itself is not in a position to meet all of those needs and there was no way that he was going to get adopted looking the way he did while he was there. So, we pulled him out of the shelter as soon as we could and got him into a foster home after we first bathed him and cut off all of the knots in his fur. Those likely were due to self neglect because he had not been feeling well up to that point. We did the necessary bloodwork through a local veterinarian to confirm the medical diagnosis and to discuss treatment plans. Because he does not have an advanced case of mega colon, surgery is not required and, given his age, probably not even appropriate. The veterinarian suggested Fortiflora which is a dietary supplement for cats and dogs both, as well as wet food with pumpkin. Both of those are very easy to purchase. Champ weighs about 9 pounds and has lost a lot of muscle mass in his back legs. That may be due to his age, as he has a healthy appetite, and there were no other issues in his bloodwork, surprisingly. However, he is affectionate and will sit next to you on a sofa if he cannot talk you into letting him sleep on your lap. For that rare time when h
