For those in the rescue world, you wish and hope for the best for that animal - that they’re going to get the love and attention they deserve. Sometimes things just don’t end up that way, even after taking necessary steps ensuring that they will be properly taken care of.

Meet this handsome boy, Bruce 🩵

Bruce was posted on our page 3.5 years ago by Sam, our vet tech assistant, who fostered him after being scheduled to be euthanized. She eventually found a home 2.5 hours away with someone that she knew growing up where he’d be the only pet and get loads of attention. Although it was tough, she thought she could trust this individual.

Fast forward to a week ago, Sam received a phone call from the local animal control that they had picked up Bruce. Bruce was still microchipped under Sam’s name due to very minimal communication from his owner, which is how they got in contact with her. Due to a signed adoption contract, Sam had to wait until the stray hold was up to get him in efforts for them to get in contact with his owner.

Thankfully at this point, Bruce was never claimed. Tuesday, Sam and her brother made the trip out there to pick up Bruce. Without much information other than being told he was “alert, uninjured but severely underweight” upon arrival at their facility and seeing his intake picture on their website, you can only imagine that this was going to be worse in person.

When Bruce left Sam, he weighed 81 lbs. As of yesterday, he weighed 46lbs. We don’t know the story and unfortunately animal control is not releasing any of that information to Sam, it’s very clear that Bruce has been neglected.

Animal cruelty/neglect is absolutely awful. Seeing Bruce so malnourished and ravenous for food is extremely heartbreaking. After everything he’s been through though, this boy is so loving and craves all the human attention and cuddles he can get.

In addition to Bruce needing ongoing medical attention and the unexpected out of pocket costs that come with food, medications/preventions and everyday needs, Sam has made a GoFundMe in hopes to raise enough money to hire an attorney to press charges against his previous owner.

Anything and everything will help, even a share! Sam appreciates all the help she has been getting and is so glad that Bruce is now safe🩵
