Goldfinger – wenn das Schicksal zuschlägt

Mixed Breed · Unknown

Goldfinger is a found animal from the region and was far from enthusiastic about any changes. Whenever he needs a place change, he always requires adjustment time. Not only did he have to lead a stray life with its usual battles, but upon intake, he was clearly suffering from dental issues. When he was finally allowed to move into the rehoming room after being neutered, vaccinated, and having his teeth fixed, we were surprised by his bulbous belly and his seemingly endless thirst and hunger. The result: a diabetic. Additionally, it’s challenging to determine his daily blood sugar levels. Currently, in close consultation with the veterinarians, he receives insulin twice a day, which is well-manageable in his accustomed environment. He also gets a few brushes, and his special food to ensure he continues to fare as well as he does now. Goldfinger can be rehomed to fellow animals on a separate feeding schedule, ideally another diabetic. Alternatively, a single placement is also an option, but future free roam is out of the question. Of course, he’s in need of a patron to help find him a foster home. Who would like to show our special Goldfinger that fate is still being kind to him?. This cat needs outdoor access. This animal is not yet neutered/spayed.

Goldfinger ist ein Fundtier der Region und war nach Sicherung alles andere als begeistert. Bei Platzwechsel benötigt er stets Eingewöhnungszeit. Nicht nur dass er unkastriert ein Streunerdasein mit den üblichen Kämpfen führen musste, bei Aufnahme plagten ihn sichtlich Zahnprobleme. Als er nach Kastra, Impfung und Zahnsanierung ins Vermittlungszimmer wechseln durfte, wunderte uns sein birnenförmiger Bauch und sein nicht enden wollenden Durst und Hunger. Endergebnis: Diabetiker. Dazu die Schwierigkeit, dass es sich schwierig gestaltet, den Tageszucker zu ermitteln. Aktuell wird in enger Absprache mit den Ärzten täglich zweimal Insulin verabreicht, was in für Goldfinger gewohntem Umfeld gut händelbar ist. Auch eine paar Bürstenstriche sind mal drin. Dazu sein Spezialfutter, damit es ihm lange wenigstens so gut geht, wie es aktuell ist. Goldfinger kann bei getrennter Fütterung zu Artgenossen vermittelt werden, idealerweise ein weiterer Diabetiker. Ansonsten ist auch ein Einzelplatz denkbar, nur Freigang ist zukünftig ausgeschlossen. Natürlich sucht er Paten, um ihm gegebenenfalls eine Pflegestelle zu ermöglichen. Wer möchte unserem speziellen Goldfinger zeigen, dass es das Schicksal doch noch einmal gut mit ihm meint?
