Pickles Domestic Short Hair Columbus, OH

Meet Pickles. Pickles was found under a large delivery truck at the Dicks Sporting Goods Loading dock. The workers there saw blood under the truck and it was a lot of blood! Then they saw a little cat walk out. He had blood all over the back half of him and he had no tail. He looked up at them and meowed. He was asking for help. He had obviously been up inside the truck (who knows for how long or where it came from) trying to stay warm when his tail was severed by a blade or fan in the engine of the truck.

The Dicks employees gathered together and one of them took Pickles to the vet to see if there was anything that could be done for him. The vet treated hi for pain, gave him antibiotics and kept him for two days at the vet care center. They employees picked him up (pooling all of the money they had to cover the bill) and called PetPromise to see if we could help.

One of our new foster Mom's stepped up to foster the big boy (who was barely more than a teenage cat himself). He is in his foster home now and he is going through treatment to help heal his amputated tail. He gets laser treatments weekly and he is starting to heal. But despite everything this sweet boy has been through he is the happiest, most friendly boy you will ever meet. He loves people, stands on his hind legs to get head pets, he loves to follow his foster Mom everywhere, and he LOVES food! (He had been pretty emaciated when he was found so he hadn't been eating regularly and now he wants nothing more than to gobble up whatever is available!

He is almost healed and will be ready to be the love of someone's life. This boy is going to make an amazing best friend for someone. If you are looking for a very smart, funny, outgoing (and very very lucky) boy, Pickles is the perfect cat for your family!
