Barney's Story

Meet Barney!<br/><br/>This sweet, special 1 year-old boy came to us after he was trapped outside as a stray. Our vet believes that at some point he suffered a brain/spinal injury, affecting his coordination, balance, and motor skills. <br/><br/>We’ve noticed that Barney is pretty good with the litterbox. He has a tough time controlling his head, so he’s a bit of a messy eater. His default is to move or walk backward instead of forward, and he does appear to have some tremors. With his balance issues, he’s uncomfortable being picked up, so he needs to be supported in a very specific way so he feels safe. Due to his needs, we would recommend he be an only pet in the home...<br/><br/>...but pets and cuddles from his human buddies are his FAVORITE!<br/><br/>If you think you’re able to provide a comfortable, understanding home for this lovebug, please fill out the application at https://airtable.com/appuByqpwx7zy0Hi8/pagVHMwd3rJZ8wTYi/form or stop by during our normal business hours to pay him a visit.
