Snickers

This pet needs emergency placement. Please click here to go to our emergency placement page for more information.<br/><br/>Snickers is on the At Risk list due to medical and behavior reasons. She is not thriving in the care center and continues to display challenging behavior during interactions linked to Feline Hyperesthesia Syndrome (FHS). It is in her best interest to move out of the kennel environment and into a stable home as quickly as possible. She will need ongoing medication to manage her symptoms. She would do best in a home with adopters who are willing to give her plenty of time and space to adjust, and who have experience with feline body language, overstimulation, and who have the time to invest in managing these behaviors on a consistent basis to avoid further bite/scratch incidents.<br/><br/>A volunteer writes:<br/>Ten month old Snickers is one of our special needs kitty. She is thought to have "feline hyperesthesia syndrome" and is currently on GABA and Fluoxetin. Two months ago, Snickers was found abandoned in front of a very large building complex( she was roaming the area for weeks), underweight, weak and dehydrated. <br/><br/>What my friends at ACC say about me:<br/>I am looking for a home with a patient person.<br/>I will flourish in a calm environment and a low-traffic home.<br/>I have medical needs that staff will address with you when you meet me.<br/>Snickers tolerates attention and petting but appears fearful or stressed in the shelter. She may be a little more independent and may need time to warm up to her new home. We recommend that this cat go to a home with experienced cat parents.
