** SPECIAL NEEDS ** Raven is just under 3 years old and is as very sweet cat. He was taken into our rescue with a number of his other siblings when their owner could no longer care for them. Raven LOVES to get squeeze up treats and will be your best friend to get more :) He is very bonded to his brother Stormie, so we are looking for a home together for them.
During Raven's annual vet visit last year, the veterinarian noted that Raven had a grade 3 heart murmur. We had an echocardiogram performed on Raven, so that we could ensure that Raven has the proper treatment plan. The results of the echocardiogram weren't what we were hoping for - he has severe HCM (Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy). This means that Raven's life expectancy may will be shortened :( Raven is on 3 medications twice a day - clopidogrel, atenolol, and enalapril. He will need echocardiograms once a year to monitor his heart.
We are not sure how much time Raven has left, but we are hoping there is someone out there that will read his story and give him the forever home he deserves and will spoil him with love and treats for however long he has left. Raven is very bonded with his brother Stormie (who also has severe HCM) and we would love for them to stay together. We are open to a long term foster home as well (the foster would need to live in CT and be willing to take them to our vet for their annual vet appointments).
Cats are negative for FelV/FIV, receive age-appropriate vaccines and deworming, are spayed/neutered and are microchipped (free lifetime registration with adoption).
All of our pets go home with a "Go Home Goody Bag" that includes a starter supply of food, treats, toys, and a voucher for a free month of pet insurance from Trupanion.
