Just a few weeks ago, Fergus was rescued from a home, along with 17 cats. Fergus has endured years without proper care, suffering from a large mass on his face that has caused pain and swelling.
Our Shelter Medicine Team performed the extensive surgery needed to remove the mass. Our team has continued to stay by his side through recovery, as he received pain management, monitoring, and additional supportive care.
Today, Fergus is looking and feeling so much better. He is enjoying time in our play yards, walks around the garden, and getting plenty of snuggles. Soon, he’ll be ready for his forever home.
