About Spec

Meet Pinky, a gentle 8-year-old Domestic Short Hair who found himself at ACCT due to a broken jaw. Unfortunately, it turns out he suffers from severe periodontal disease, which has affected his teeth and jaw alignment, making it difficult for him to close his mouth fully. He needs a dental procedure to remove his affected canines, crucial for his comfort and quality of life. Pinky has a sweet nature but can be a bit nervous around new people. He has shown no signs of aggression, and while he may take some time to warm up, with the right patience and understanding, he will reveal his true lovable self. This rescue-only cat urgently seeks a place where he can get the care he desperately needs. Can you give Pinky the second chance he deserves? What are you waiting for? Apply today!
