Meet Ben!
Ben was abandoned at a parking lot. To survive, he roamed the stalls looking for anything edible. The vendors did not like seeing strays around, and poured hot water on Ben to drive him away. A kind-hearted visitor saw Ben as he lay at a corner in the parking lot from the pain. He rushed Ben to the vet for immediate and proper medical care, lucky no permanent scars on his body.
Despite going through such harrowing ordeal, Ben never lost his love for people. He is super friendly and is not afraid of meeting strangers. In fact, with his big smiles he can pretty much befriend anyone! Ben also loves running around and playing with other furfriends! At his age, Ben would benefit from basic training classes and continuous socialization. Ben will make a great hiking buddy, and a warm personal and portable heater at home in this cold winter!
