➡️ UDON IS ON THE EPL FOR MEDICAL REASONS – He is a sweet, young adult cat with a severe upper respiratory infection. He is not eating and needs supportive care in a veterinary clinic in order to recover. Behaviorally, Udon is caustious to accept pets due to FAS but he will tolerate handling for medical treatments. NOT EATING/APPETITE ISSUES ARE A DEATH SENTENCE IN SHELTER. This evaluation/diagnosis means that UDON will be given very little time for rescue/foster/adoption. 🔥🔥🔥🔥
A volunteer writes: Udon is a cute Tabby boy part of a large family of cats(fifteen to be more precise). Their owner lost their home and all the housemates had to come to the Manhattan Care Center. We do not know anything about Udon, his true temperament, his behavior with his friends or his owner...Nothing. At the care center, he is a shy soul, staying at the back of his cubby but more recently(see his video), accepting caresses, leaning slightly into pets and closing his eyes with gentle words. He even made biscuits for me and another volunteer. Something good is cooking here ad I hope that Udon will soon reveal what a good and sweet cat he truly is. Like his housemates(they all have been adopted!!), Udon needs to be discovered, adopted and join a new family for many years of shared happiness. Come and meet Udon very soon at the Manhattan Care Center! Update:Udon is really a very nice cat who has come a long way!He is not shy at all anymore but I knew he was getting there, slowly but surely. Udon has a big cold but his sweet nature and his love for attention and cuddles still drive him to seek all the love he can get!!!Udon needs your help now! He is sooo worth your attention! What my friends at ACC say about me: I am looking for a home with a patient person. ❤️ 😻❤️ 😻❤️ 😻

1. BAMBI (4X ON EPL)- He is a sweet but nervous cat who is not eating consistently in shelter. We suspect this is due to severe periodontal disease and stress. He needs a dentistry with extractions and a low stress environment to recover. NOT EATING/APPETITE ISSUES ARE A DEATH SENTENCE IN THE SHELTER.
2. SPOCK - Spock is a senior cat with comorbidities including dental disease, URI, and suspected diabetes. Additional diagnostics are being performed to confirm a diabetes diagnosis, and Spock will require follow up with a veterinarian. Behaviorally, he allows handling.
3. JACK - Jack is a 5 month old kitten with a history of urinary issues. Upon presentation to the shelter, he had a significantly abnormal bladder and hematuria. His hematuria has resolved, but his urinary tract remains abnormal with apparent masses within the urinary bladder. Jack's diagnosis is unknown and his long-term prognosis is guarded. Clinically, he is eating well and now urinating in the litterbox. He will need advanced imaging and additional diagnostics with placement. Behaviorally, he is sweet and allows all handling.
4. BUGGIE - He is a sweet cat with diabetes mellitus. He needs placement in a low stress home with long term management of his condition by a local veterinarian. Behaviorally, Buggie is soft bodied, solicities pets often, and allows all medical handling.
5. UDON - He is a sweet, young adult cat with a severe upper respiratory infection. He is not eating and needs supportive care in a veterinary clinic in order to recover. Behaviorally, Udon is caustious to accept pets due to FAS but he will tolerate handling for medical treatments. NOT EATING/APPETITE ISSUES ARE A DEATH SENTENCE IN SHELTER.
