A sickly, senior feline found the right home at the right time and is thriving, according to the pet’s new owner, who posted his story to Reddit. He wrote, “This little guy walked up to me two months ago while I was in my front yard. He was infested with fleas, had rotting teeth (the smell from his mouth was unbearable), he was never neutered, starving, was skin and bones, sneezing constantly and could barely breathe. The next day, we visited the vet, thinking he may have to be put down.”
However, that’s not what happened. It cost considerable money to save the cat, but he’s thriving. The Redditor said, “He still has a long way to go but, man, am I glad he came up to me … I’m even more determined to make sure he lives out his senior years as uneventful and peaceful as possible.”
