Jonathan Taylor Thomas has already proven just how strong and resilient he is. This handsome boy came to the Humane Society after presumably being hit by a car, suffering multiple fractures to his right rear leg and pelvis. Due to the severity of the damage, his right rear leg had to be amputated. After six weeks of dedicated cage rest in a loving foster home, his pelvic fractures were given time to heal and stabilize. While his pelvis didn’t heal in perfect alignment, Jonathan has adjusted beautifully to life on three legs and is getting around well.
Jonathan doesn’t let anything slow him down. He has no trouble getting in and out of his litterbox and uses it consistently like a champ. He’s adapted to his new normal with grace, showing everyone just how capable tripod kitties can be. That said, because of his previous injuries and the way they healed, he may be more prone to arthritis in his hips as he gets older. Keeping Jonathan at a healthy, slim weight will be incredibly important to reduce strain on his hind end and help him stay comfortable for years to come.
Now that he’s a three-legged superstar, Jonathan will need to be an indoor-only boy where he can stay safe and protected. In return, you’ll get a resilient, inspiring companion who has already overcome so much and is ready to write his next chapter in a loving forever home.

More about this shelter
The Humane Society of Greater Dayton is proud to be a no-kill animal welfare agency. We are committed to finding great homes for great pets! As a 501(c)(3) nonproft, we receive no government funding and rely solely on donations from individuals, companies and grants to fund our programs and services. We are not affiliated with any other animal agency on a local, state or national level. Since 1902, our organization has been devoted to being a voice for the voiceless. Although we proudly find more than 2,000 animals forever homes every year, we are far more than an adoption center. We currently have a wide array of programs to support animals in our community. Through our high-volume spay and neuter clinic, we are able to help pet owners as well as battle cat overpopulation through Trap-Neuter-Return. Our humane society agents also work tirelessly to protect pets from cruel and neglectful circumstances through our Cruelty & Neglect Investigations Department. Through our Veterinary Hospital, we can provide top-quality access to veterinary care at a low cost to pet owners. In addition to our many programs, our organization is unique because we are the only agency in the community able to handle all types of animals. This includes cats and dogs but also rabbits, birds, farm animals, pocket pets and exotics. Our organization is committed to providing our community, our state and our region with support and care.
