Boots â A Life Worth Fighting For
BFFRâs most senior foster, Boots, almost 17 years young, had a big spa day today. A haircut, a warm bath, and a gentle full-body massage. Moments like these remind us just how far this beautiful boy has come and how much he has endured.
For the past few months, weâve been carefully clipping Boots underneath to keep him comfortable and make grooming easier. With summer finally bringing warmer days, we decided it was the perfect time to give him a full lion cut, allowing him to enjoy a lovely warm bath and some much deserved TLC.
Boots was an absolute angel throughout it all. But as we gently clipped away years of long fur, our hearts broke. Beneath it were countless scars đ silent reminders of a life spent abandoned on the streets, injuries left untreated, and years without safety, comfort, or love.
Boots found himself the kill list of a rural pound. Saying yes to Boots meant committing to everything that comes with caring for an elderly cat and we would make that choice again in a heartbeat.
Today, Boots is thriving in foster care, safe, loved, and finally knowing kindness in his golden years. Helping our senior fur friends isnât easy, especially for a small rescue like BFFR.
Boots needs:
đŸ A special age appropriate diet for arthritic joints and a sensitive tummy
đŸ Arthritis injections and joint supplements
đŸ Regular senior wellness blood tests
đŸ And a dental procedure in the new year, quoted between $449 â $1,019
As we continue searching for Bootsâ forever home in the new year, we are reaching out to our community for help.
We are seeking sponsors who would be willing to set up a regular donation to support Bootsâ ongoing care and ensure all of his medical and nutritional needs are met.
Boots survived years on the streets. He survived the pound. Now, he deserves comfort, dignity, and love for the rest of his life. If youâre able to help even in a small way youâll be directly changing the world for one very special old man.
