Tux Domestic Short Hair Mix Whistler, BC

Hi I'm Tux! I've found myself at the shelter in my golden years and am looking for a retirement home where I will be doted on and cared for forever. I'm around 12 years old and was very well loved by my pet parent but sadly they needed some assistance when their own health declined. As you can see, I do need to work on my own health too as I am a chonky girl who is on a mission to loose some of these extra pounds! I settled in well at WAG and made lots of new friends but I'm now in a wonderful foster home where I am getting lots of TLC. I love: naps, gentle brushing, food, chin rubs and more naps. I have a few cosy beds and have been trying each one out! I love it here, its much quieter than the shelter and I adore spending time with my foster mom all day as she works from home on the computer next to me. I have been getting monthly Solensia shots to help me with my mobility as my joints are sore, it seems to be working and I'm currently on prescription vet food designed to provide all that is needed for an older gal like me. Although if you ask me, they are being a little strict with my portion control around here.....

Guess what? Shout out to the generous folks at @Petfinder Foundation for awarding WAG with the Senior Pet Grant for little old me! This grant is designed to help alleviate some of the costs that can be associated with adopting a more senior pet. I've been lucky to receive $1000 which will help to cover a variety of costs, including medication and food expenses, for my future adopters. This is an amazing bonus for whoever is lucky enough to adopt me!!
