Background:
Aspen and his siblings were rescued by another shelter before being transferred to us here at TKW. They arrived at that shelter infested with fleas and badly needing a vet checkup. After arriving here with us, we got them flea treated and checked out, and now they have been fixed and vaccinated and are ready for forever homes! I have no background on the kind of situation they originally came from unfortunately, but they are safe and happy now, and that's all that matters!
Bio:
Aspen is a sweet, shy, little guy that you very rarely see apart from his brother Hawthorn, unless he is romping around with Pebble. He is silky smooth, and very quiet, unless its dinner time and then he likes to tell you that you aren't going fast enough! He loves to play, groom his brother while they snuggle, and is very often seen wrestling with Hawthorn or Pebble. Him and Hawthorn are the perfect pair, he is the calm to Hawthorns crazy. We believe the boys would do just fine with a dog, given that the dog is calmer and not prone to chasing cats. We would recommend adopting both Aspen and Hawthorn, as while they aren't bonded to the point of anxiety when apart, they do have a very special relationship and it is adorable to witness.
Visual Description and Medical Info:
Aspen is a silky brown tabby with a heart tattoo in one ear from his neuter. His estimated birthday is 9/7/23. He was neutered on 1/4/24, where he also received his FVRCP and rabies vaccines. he was given a clear bill of health by his vet, including a negative snap test. He was neutered at Nelson County Humane Society, and was seen at Bourbon City Animal Hospital for his initial vet checkup.
Aspen was diagnosed with Pemphigus Foliaceus on 3/20/2024. Pemphigus Foliaceus is an autoimmune condition that causes scabbing on his ears, nose, and in his claw folds. It is treated very easily and inexpensively with prednisolone tablets, he is very good about taking his meds as long as he is given some churu afterwards, he will even remind you to do it so he gets his treat! He does not need medicine all the time, only when he is in an active flare. There is no telling how often these flares will happen, he has had two so far, once when he was diagnosed, and again in April of 2024. He does get some pain when in flares, and we manage this with liquid gabapentin, which is also inexpensive.
If you are interested in this sweet pair of brothers, but tentative about managing Aspens condition, please reach out and ask questions, we are more than happy to answer!
