Goose is incredibly special. I LOVE this boy!! Goose was found in a dumpster in San Marcos, TX (along with his siblings). They were taken to the local shelter. Covid was in place so the shelter closed their doors. Only rescues were allowed in. This is how I got Goose and his siblings. All have long since been adopted out. Goose was the BEST cat to have around because he grew up loving kittens! He was so good at calming them down, grooming them, etc. When Goose was about a year, he got a bad URI from another foster kitty. He was treated but had a harder time recovering. He stayed here longer (he was my kitten tamer) and that is when I noticed other issues happening. Long story short, Goose most likely has IBD (no biopsy has been done - per vets suggestion). I can go into great length about this to anyone interested. Right now, I am going to do my best to find him the ABSOLUTE best home. He deserves it.
Ideally, Goose would go to another home that already has an IBD kitty. He needs a novel protein diet. He is currently on wet and dry food, probiotics mixed in. Experienced adopter would be ideal. Someone who understands this condition and knows how to manage it. Goose currently gets steroid injections (by me), goes to the vet every 6 months and is doing well. Because I do have other cats in the house with special diets, it has been a challenge keeping Goose on track, which is VERY important with IBD. Goose needs to have another kitty friend. He loves grooming and being groomed. I know finding him the perfect home will be difficult but willing to wait it out :-) I love this boy so much but want him to find a home where his condition can be managed and he can live a long healthy life! He deserves it!!! For more info. on Goose, please contact Stephanie directly. 512-694-6209 or stefpq@yahoo.com Would love to have a somewhat local adopter so I can be close should something arise. I have so many photos and videos of Goose I am more than happy to share, just can't put them all online here. He really is the most handsome fellow!

More about this rescue
Austin Siamese Rescue, Inc. is a 501(c)(3) organization, formerly the Austin Branch of Texas Siamese Rescue. We focus on the 14 breeds of the Royal Thai Family, including Siamese, Balinese, Javanese, Oriental Shorthairs and Longhairs, Birmans, Burmese, Himalayans, Ocicats, Ragdolls, Snowshoes, and Tonkinese. All of the cats fostered in Austin are cared for in private homes by individuals who dedicate their spare time to this effort.
Our cats come from a variety of backgrounds. Some faced death at the shelter, while others came from abusive and neglectful households. Still others were treasured companions of guardians who could no longer care for them. What they all have in common is a need for a forever home, where they can live their lives as the happy, pampered cats they all deserve to be. We're looking for the perfect inside home for them!
