Caring for animals brings me a lot of joy.
I have stayed in touch with Homeward Bound Dog Rescue, the rescue where from I adopted Bender, and was asked if I would be interested in fostering a homeless dog, Kater.
I picked Kater up last Saturday; he was in rough shape - exhausted, dirty, stitches in a leg, and just neutered. Seemingly neglected by his previous owners, and up there in his years, Kater needed some love and rest asap.
I am so *happy* to report that just since Saturday Kater has been cleaned up, and appears to be regaining his energy and good health. He has been resting, eating, enjoying a walk a day, and even playing a little. He, like Bender, shows remarkable resilience given his past.
Kater is up for adoption through Homeward Bound. He is 10 years old, and an exceptionally sweet and quiet soul. He is housetrained, doesn't bark, and doesn't get into mischief when left alone. He's great with Bender and other dogs, and I'm sure he'd be great with cats and all other creatures. He is a little arthritic, but it does not appear to bother him - he's just slow-moving at times. If you or someone you know have some love and a forever home for this guy, please contact me or HB. He's a gem!
