Sparky's Story

Lovingly referred to as "Potato" by her foster parents for her round stature, Sparky is full of life, love, and resilience. One of Sparky's most endearing features is her nubby ears, which give her a striking resemblance to her namesake, Como Zoo's Sparky the Seal.<br/><br/>Before Sparky came into rescue, she was living with chronic ear infections and likely a great deal of pain. She patiently waited for a specialized surgery to remove her ear canal, and along the way also underwent a spay and dental procedure. Needless to say, this girl is no stranger to the operating room, but she has been a trooper through all the vet visits and countless doses of medication.<br/><br/>If there's one thing Sparky loves most in this life, it's food. She may not be able to hear a thing, but somehow, she always knows exactly when it's mealtime. She's never one to miss a snack!<br/><br/>Sparky adores gentle scratches and being brushed. She'll happily let you scoop her up for a few moments of cuddles before giving a little wiggle to let you know she's ready to be back on all four paws. Through and through, she is a certified sweetheart. She starts purring almost instantly when she sees you walk into the room. <br/><br/>After everything she's been through, Sparky deserves nothing less than the very best. She's ready to trade vet visits for sunny windowsills, cozy naps, full food bowls, and a lifetime of love with a family who will spoil her the way she deserves.<br/><br/>Due to her previous ear issues, Sparky could be prone to infections in her left ear so her new family should keep an eye on her ear and make sure her veterinarian is aware.<br/><br/>Sparky is fixed, microchipped, FIV/FeLv negative, and up to date on vaccinations for her age.<br/><br/>Adoption Fee: $265 + applicable tax<br/><br/>MEET ME/ADOPT ME: If you'd like to arrange a meeting or begin the adoption process, please fill out an adoption application by visiting https://www.twincitiespetrescue.org/adopt/ look for the bio and click "Apply for Adoption".
