‼️EUTH ALERT!‼️ 🆘 URGENT! ALPINE - Senior Medical Himalyan Cat NEEDS RESCUE by 6/20/26! 🆘
🛟 Plea from OC Animal Care: 🛟
*Needs rescue by 6/20/26 due to medical!*
"Alpine" A1965729
10 years old, 10.50 lbs, neutered male, blue pt, Himalayan
"Alpine" was called in as an injured stray on 6/15. He is a sweet, friendly cat who is easy for our veterinary team to handle. Alpine came to us flea infested with a thinning coat, fractured canines, red gums, and heavy dental calculus. He had severe muscle wasting in his hind limbs, weakness, and he was not able to stand readily on his own. When Alpine would try to stand, his hind legs would splay. He was noted to be stronger on his forelimbs. Radiographs were taken which showed a large bladder and spondylosis along his thoracolumbar spine but no visible fractures. Alpine is now ambulatory on all 4 but ataxic and his legs start to slide under his body when he is walking. Our vet team is having to express Alpine's bladder (it is easily expressed). Some blood clots were noted in his urine so a Convenia injection was administered. Our vet team is concerned about a possible spinal cord injury, cauda equina, and/or a metabolic illness such as diabetes.
Please see Aspen's below medical history for more information and let us know if your organization is in a position to provide him with further needed diagnostics and veterinary care.
*Alpine could be humanely euthanized sooner if he were to decline.
