Meet Ollie & Percy
These “slightly special needs” brothers are still waiting for their forever home(s) to find them. We would REALLY love for them to stay together, if possible. They are currently residing in our 24/7 adoption center and have been for several weeks already. These boys are so sweet! Percy is the first one to run up to the cage door to greet anyone that comes in and will ask for pets when they are let out for playtime or their area is being cleaned. Ollie is a sweet boy too just a little more on the timid side compared to his brother but LOVES pets and is so gentle.
We say they are “slightly” special needs because it’s really nothing serious. They both are FVR kitties which stands for Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis. What does that mean? That means they have reoccurring, what we call, “Kitty colds”. Similar to a human cold they get flare ups of things like weepy eyes, runny nose and sneezing. This runs more rampant in times of stress so getting them adopted and into a stable environment will help reduce those flare ups dramatically. More often than not these flare ups do not need treatment, however if a flare up occurs that makes them overly congested they may need a course of antibiotics prescribed by your veterinarian to get that cleared up. This is extremely common in kitties and more so common in kitties that have a rough start in life which Ollie & Percy very much did. Ollie also has a bit of a sensitive tummy and occasionally gets softer stool than normal but no treatment is needed other than making sure to keep him on one specific diet (switching foods abruptly or often can cause gastrointestinal upset in any cat but especially kitties with sensitive stomachs).
These boys deserve a loving home after what they’ve been through.. being born in a home and then thrown out on the street amongst an overpopulated colony of unaltered, unvaccinated, feral cats to fend for themselves when they were just months old after the homeowner moved and decided throwing them outside was more convenient. Fortunately for them a neighbor did the best they could by offering them food and water. These boys (and their sister who has been adopted) deserved more than what they received as tiny babies and we want nothing more than to find them a home(s) that will love them wholeheartedly for the rest of their lives.
Please share their story and if you are interested in meeting them please go visit them anytime!
