Hadley's Story
Hadley is a sweet senior cat who is looking for a quiet home to live out his golden years! This handsome gentleman has some health issues and he deserves to spend the rest of his life being spoiled like the king he is. Hadley can be a little shy at first, but he LOVES to be brushed and will seek you out when it's time to freshen up his hairdo! He also enjoys watching YouTube videos for cats and can regularly be found keeping an eye on the critters that live in the screen (when he isn't curled up in his favorite bed by the radiator, that is)!<br/><br/>Weight: 7.1 lbs<br/><br/>Spayed/Neutered: Yes!<br/><br/>Up to date on vaccines: Yes!<br/><br/>Microchipped: Yes!<br/><br/>Litter trained: Yes! They will potty in the litter box every time or nearly every time (rarely has accidents).<br/><br/>Cat sociability: Unknown! They have never met another cat while in foster care.<br/><br/>Dog sociability: Unknown! They have never met a dog while in foster care.<br/><br/>Kid sociability: Unknown! They have never met children while in foster care.<br/><br/>Likes: Sleeping in his cozy bed by the radiator, being brushed and petted, snuggling with his people, watching TV for cats<br/><br/>Dislikes: Not being comfy cozy<br/><br/>Hadley has been diagnosed with chronic kidney disease (CKD) and is FIV positive. He also has systemic hypertension (high blood pressure), which is currently well controlled with amlodipine, and a II-III/VI Right parasternal systolic murmur has been noted on examination. Additionally, Hadley does not have any teeth remaining. CKD is mainly a problem in mature and senior cats (seven years and older), affecting an estimated 30-40% of cats over 10 years and 81% of cats over 15 years. Only about 10% of the cases occur in cats less than three years old. CKD is the end stage of various disease processes rather than a specific disease in its own right. Most cats are effectively managed with diet change, including supplementation and one or two other treatments. Your veterinarian will work with you to determine the best treatment for your cat. Adopters should be aware that Hadley's kidney disease is progressive in nature, and his overall life expectancy is expected to be limited, likely less than two years. Despite these conditions, Hadley can continue to enjoy a good quality of life with appropriate medical management and routine veterinary monitoring. He would benefit most from a calm, quiet home where he can receive consistent care and comfort during this stage of his life. Please inform your veterinarian of this history so they can monitor them and make a plan for their life long care, which may include a prescription diet and/or routine lab work to monitor the kidney function. This procedure can be performed with your regular veterinarian.<br/><br/>If you'd like to meet Hadley, please fill out an adoption application at animalcareleague.org/adoptions and send us an email at adoption@animalcareleague.org to schedule an introduction!
