Lohko is a quiet, sweet boy who, although he may make you work for it a little at first, once he knows you are in it for the long haul, is loving and affectionate. This super easy going boy has not had it easy, and may have some more bumpy times ahead of him.... he is looking for someone to love him and be with him whatever his future holds..... he is worth every bump!!
About Me:
Lohko has interstitial cystitis. He has had perineal urethrostomy (PU) surgery and his condition is currently managed. However, re-occurring episodes in the future are a realistic possibility for him. Currently his urine concentratrion is still running high and continued effort is required to work towards getting it to a better ratio. Lohko's adopter will need to watch his litter box use very carefully for signs of re-occurrence (which include frequent urination, straining to urinate, blood in urine) and get veterinary care ASAP should any of these signs be present. Lohko is currently eating a Veterinary prescribed and sourced diet: Royal Canin Unrinary SO Calm wet and dry food and will need to be on a prescription Veterinary Urinary food for life.
Notes:
The adoption fee includes a health check, first vaccination in a series and any that become due while in care, first anti-parasite treatments needed in care, spay or neuter and microchip at our Veterinary partner. There is a 10% discount when you adopt 2 cats/kittens. The adopter will be responsible for any vaccine or boosters, anti-parasite treatments that are needed after adoption. Kittens usually need 3 vaccines, one month apart starting at age 7 weeks. Juveniles and Adult cats usually require 2 vaccines one month apart in the first year, then annual vaccines. Deworming is recommended at the time of each vaccine appointment. If you are intending to adopt, please be aware that your Veterinary clinic may be experiencing backlogs in scheduling appointments, so do not delay calling your clinic to book your new cat's needed booster appointment(s). Please note that cats are not tested for FIV/FeLV nor can FIP be predicted. We will share any medical information gathered during our health checks and observations revealed during their time in care. But it is important to know that some illnesses can have an incubation period of 10 days, which means that a cat can leave in good health but get sick a few days post adoption. In addition, the stress of a new environment can affect a cats’ immune system.
