More about Dean

Dean came to us as a semi feral kitty. He is doing good with our volunteers and is super gentle but needs a home that will give him time to adjust and let him be. He will learn to trust over time. He likes to play with the other kitties in our office and does well with children that are calm.  When Dean came to us we kept watching him and his breathing concerned us. We thought he had a heart condition. The vet did x-ray's and thought he may have had an enlarged heart but an Echocardiogram confirmed his heart was fine however the x-ray revealed a broken hip. Dean was getting around just fine and was not showing obvious pain other than he had deep breathing. He recently had FHO surgery, basically the equivalent  of a kitty hip replacement. He has recovered well and is now ready for his furever home.   Adoptions are limited to an approximately 150-mile radius from Locust Grove, GA, certain circumstances may allow exceptions.  To apply to adopt this pet, please fill out a Preliminary Adoption Application at  https://www.streetpaws.org/home/adopt   . This appli   cation does not commit you to an adoption.
