Fennel

Meet Fennel! This sweet 2-year-old guy came to Animal Friends from our Humane Investigations Team for having too many cats within the home. Since being here at AF we noticed him wobbling everywhere he walked so after some testing our medical team diagnosed Fennel with Myotonia Congenita - which is a hereditary neuromuscular disorder characterized by persistent contraction, particularly during muscle movement. Because of this - Fennel is looking for a home where they will be able to monitor him and give him the assistance he needs with using a litterbox, eating/drinking, and day to day activities. His diagnosis however has not stopped him from being a loveable boy who enjoys people and attention, of course. Fennel could also potentially live with other cats. If you're interest in taking Fennel home as a Hospice Adoption, reach out to us at the Adoption Department to learn what steps you need to take! Rutabaga's foster mom says he is quite the guy, and is friendly, loveable, playful and navigates the household well. He is currently living with one of our other wobbly veggie cats, Rutabaga, and while he does not have to go home with Rutabaga, they are welcome to be adopted together. Fennel is one of Animal Friend's VIPs! Our VIP Adoption Special was recently created as a means to spotlight some of our residents that have spent longer than average times in the shelter due to their more unique needs. With the VIP Adoption Special we hope to provide as much communication and education about each individual VIP resident and their unique needs as possible, as well as additional resources where needed upon their eventual adoption. Thanks to Charlotte, Dave, and rescue dog Cooper Stephenson, the adoption donation has also been fully underwritten for these VIP residents. Interested in learning more? Ask our Adoption team about eh VIP Adoption Special and learn more about these wonderful residents!
