Pandita *Adopted*

Age:
Sex: Female
Color: White & Seal
Breed: Snowshoe Mix

Personality Profile: As content and comfortable as she looks in her picture, Pandita's happy ending almost did not exist. Left outside in her carrier in front of a local shelter on a cold January night, Pandita was extremely stressed out and hiding under the towels in her cage when the shelter staff got her inside. She also began to lose some of the fur on her backside. Paws4Ever was called and the shelter transferred her out to see if the open cat room environment would do the trick. Unfortunately, she was already so depressed, she chose to stop eating. The good folks at Veterinary Specialty Hospital donate their services once a quarter forPaws4Ever animals that need extra care and took Pandita's case. Dr. Concannon was quick to find a doctor that could see Pandita. Her blood results confirmed she had hepatic lipidosis. Since it was curable and diagnosed in time, a feeding tube was inserted and Pandita left for Executive Director, Tracy Carroll's home until she would eat on her own. For the next week and a half Pandita was tempted by food but she was content having the feeding tube be her source of nourishment. Finally about a week and a half later, Tracy put some food in front of Panditaand low and behold she began to eat. Thanks, to the local shelter, Paws4Ever staff and volunteers, and the staff at Veterinary Specialty Hospital, Pandita is back in action and ready for her forever home.
