Vinnie

About Vinnie

Vinnie is an approximately 12 year old friendly male cat. Vinnie came to us in very poor condition, with a dirty coat and suffering with a nasty wound behind his ear. We were told that his owner had died and he had been left behind relying on neighbours to feed him. As an unneutered male cat he had suffered many fight wound injuries , he was suffering with anaemia and digestive issues.

Our vets have treated Vinnies wounds and he has now been neutered and microchipped and received some necessary dental work. He is eating Katkin food which has settled his digestive issues and he already looks so much healthier than when he first arrived with us. Blood tests have also revealed that Vinnie is FIV positive (feline immunodeficiency virus) but as his health is rapidly improving his initial health issues are most likely related to his struggle to survive without the care of a proper home.

Vinnie is seeking a comfy retirement home and can be adopted under our Long Term Foster scheme whereby we will provide his veterinary care via our Lewisham veterinary clinic. Vinnie could suit a spacious indoor home or a home with supervised garden access.
