Roanoke Valley SPCA

We brought in a cat that we had seen in our back yard over the winter. We usually had chased him off but today he looked lethargic and let me walk up to him, so we looked him over. He was not neutered, had many wounds and scabs all in his fur and face, and none of our close neighbors have cats so we took him here to see if they could help. We were told they would be right out to the car, were forgotten about, and then when two ladies came out after we went back up to the window.

Socially, he was fantastic with the best personality someone could ask for. Health-wise he is devastatingly ill, per an independent vet.
