Evie

EVIE, f/k/a Europe (#177875) came to Place For Cats from NYC ACC's Special Needs list. This stunning, playful, sweet, ornery snowshoe tortoiseshell had been surrendered to ACC with a fractured leg! As a result ACC could not put her on their own adoption roster. We took her to the Animal Medical Center right away where it was determined that the fracture already was healing albeit a bit irregularly. Evie was getting around fine and since has displayed no indication whatsoever of residual pain or disability. There is no observable difference in her running and playing from the running and playing of cats who did not sustain leg fractures. (In fact, she plays ENDLESSLY with her foster mates.) HOWEVER, the Animal Medical Center vets believe that she is a good candidate for early-onset arthritis in the previously injured joint. They opined that it can happen anywhere from the age of one year on, or it might not occur at all. If arthritis becomes the case, there is an operation that can be done to remedy the problem though it will be costly. Applicants for this kitty may want to consider this when applying. The AMC vet's report, x-rays and diagnostics from August 2023 are available on request. Other than the prospect of a possible future medical procedure being necessary as she ages, Evie is in excellent heath. She is FeLV/FIV tested negative, current in vaccinations, spayed and microchipped. Evie should go to a home with another young kitten. She definitely thrives on the companionship of play-mates. While we are eager to meet all prospective adopters, we request to receive your application in advance of scheduling a meet-and-greet with the foster home.
