He'll do great with someone who's comfortable with easy meds, has a flexible enough schedule to get him back to our clinic for the occasional rechecks & who understands that — while his health journey may be uncertain — his sweet personality makes him absolutely worth it.

Ed is currently doing pretty well all things considered, but we're not sure of his long-term prognosis & really want to get him out of the shelter before he has a chance to catch an illness with his weakened immune system ❤️🩹

While Ed is perfect in so many ways (chatty, confident, full of love & purrs), he arrived with some not-so-perfect medical conditions, including:
💖 Mystery anemia
💖 Feline leukemia (contagious only to other cats)
💖 A chronic autoimmune condition called "pillowfoot" managed with daily antibiotics

This prince, this smokeshow, this baby angel man is Ed!
Yes, he is cross-eyed & yes, he WILL steal your girl.
Ed was found in a local cemetery & is looking for a foster home where he can enjoy some much-needed pampering while we work to get him healthier 🧵

We've started Cable on medication to treat his cold & reduce the inflammation on his mouth.
What he’d really love, though, is to find a home where he can enjoy all the snuggles & cozy blankets that his heart desires ❤️🩹
