I got my old guy when he was already 10. He has been at the SPCA for almost a year by then and had been shuffled from place to place cause of his age. I’ve now had him for 3 years and he seems young as ever, mostly with the help of diet changes and modern vet medicine that keeps him outta pain.

I’m so glad for these kinds of advancements in animal medicine. Can’t believe I met my guy so late in his life and already feel a bit robbed of a decade of his life! Would love to see him stay happy and healthy for many more!
