He had severe matting, dental issues, and long nails that made walking difficult. Thankfully, he’s cleaned up and looking for a cozy spot to enjoy his golden years. This little guy is affectionate and loves to snuggle, making him the perfect companion. He’ll require some tender loving care in his new home as he heals. Regular grooming is essential to keep his coat looking nice and avoid returning to his previous condition. While not an athlete, Morty enjoys leisurely walks and exploring the outdoors.
