Nuremberg Animal Shelter Seeks Final Adoption for Sick Feline Pair
Nürnberg Animal Shelter Seeks Palliative Home for Elderly Cat Couple
The Nürnberg Animal Shelter is urgently seeking a new home for an elderly cat duo, Ken and Tinkerbelle. The two felines, aged 15, have been admitted to the shelter due to their owner's illness, adding to their existing health difficulties.
Ken, the tomcat, is currently managing well despite having a pancreatic tumor and uncertain life expectancy. He requires medication to alleviate his condition. Tinkerbelle, on the other hand, is diagnosed with diabetes, but her disease is currently under control with a specific diet. She only permits touch from familiar individuals and requires patience and time. In contrast, Ken is quite affectionate.
The animal shelter's team is looking for a calm, adult-oriented home for the elderly cats. Ideally, the new family would have previous experience with cats to provide them with the caring, palliative environment they need.
Meanwhile, the shelter continues to address the growing number of feral cats roaming Nürnberg's streets. Recently, it responded to allegations regarding a feral cat neutering program, vehemently refuting the claims made against it.
The two felines—Ken and Tinkerbelle—yearn for a shared home, hoping to spend their remaining years together. Interested individuals can contact the Nürnberg Animal Shelter for more information about their adoption process and the cats' current condition.
