Story
Arnold Palmer had been living outside, surviving on his own for at least a year. At some point, he was injured and was seen dragging his back leg as he wandered around the neighborhood. The pain he was in did not make him any less social or loving. Once Arnold came to us, he was seen by our vets and had his rear leg amputated. This won't slow this sweet boy down. After he recovers, he will be ready for a loving home where he will never have to make it on his own again!This cat is waiting for it's Forever Home!
