My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Panther is a very special cat looking for a very special home. This 10 year old beautiful boy has been diagnosed with a rare autoimmune disorder called pododermatitis (also known as pillow foot) which causes inflammation and ulceration of the paw pads. He is currently on medication to help manage the inflammation and will need to be on meds from time to time. However, he is still able to jump up on things and enjoys looking out the window. Panther can be quite affectionate, and sometimes a bit mouthy if he's overstimulated, and will do best in a home with older kids. If you think you have what it takes to love this very special senior, please stop by the VAO soon and ask for Panther.
