Story
Meet Orange! A Loving Soul Looking for the Right Home
Orange is a 5-year-old, gentle boy with a loving, happy, innocent nature. He’s searching for a forever home where he can be loved and cared for in a calm, safe environment. Due to his unique health needs and behaviors, we’re looking for an adopter who is prepared to give him the special care he deserves.
Health Considerations: Orange has a few health conditions that require consistent care. He’s being treated for megaesophagus and is on a special, raw food diet to support his health. Orange cannot be vaccinated due to a past adverse reaction, so he will need to stay on a holistic, immune-supportive regimen for the rest of his life.
Behavior: Orange does spray, but with patience and diligence, this can often be minimized or even stopped completely if stress is minimized. It's probably best if he's the only cat in the home, as he can feel threatened by other cats. If adopted with his sweet, smaller and just as loving brother (who also sprays), it's possible the both of them would stop spraying as they would no longer be under threat of the dominant cats. It is difficult to determine what the outcome would be so we would always reserve a space in the sanctuary for one or both of them to return.
Orange loves people! He'll pur if you just make eye contact with him. He enjoys spending time with gentle adult humans, gentle cats and gentle dogs but is afraid of loud noises and kids. He’s a big softie who prefers a peaceful home.
Requirements for His Care:
3 Luckydog-approved raw meals per day, with detox supplements and raw meaty bones for dental health.
A fragrance-free, clean, bleach-free, clutter-free home (to make cleaning easier and reduce stress).
Daily brushing and plenty of love
Special care and meds at mealtimes to ensure the food gets into his stomach
Because of his health conditions, Orange will need to be placed as a long-term foster or co-owned cat. We will need to ensure his health insurance remains active and that he gets the care he needs throughout his life. For his insurance to remain in effect, he will have to remain in the 92037 zip code.
Orange is a sweet, loving cat who simply needs the right environment. He’ll thrive in a quiet, fragrance-free home where he’s the center of attention. While his needs are specific, we believe there’s someone out there who can give him the chance to live his best life.
If you want to be his hero but aren't able to provid him a home, please consider sponsoring him just email us and we will send you a link to make a weekly donation via any credit or debit card or paypal
If you think you could be the perfect fit for Orange, please reach out. We know this is a big ask, but we’re hopeful that the right home might be out there. If you can't have him in your home consider applying to volunteer and fundraise for Luckydog so you can help Orange and his friends live their best life. Thank you for considering giving this sweet boy the chance he deserves!
