About Bear

Meet Bear, affectionately dubbed "Gummy Bear" because he’s without teeth! This young male cat came to us from a neighborhood in Houston where, despite being lively initially, he became lethargic due to adolescent stomatitis. Eating was a painful ordeal for him, causing significant weight loss. Thankfully, his finder sought help for him, leading to a complete dental extraction that put an end to his suffering. Now, Bear is thriving. He has gained weight and enjoys a special diet of tasty slurry food. His playful spirit has fully returned, and he’s ready to share that joy with a forever home. Bear is friendly and great with both dogs and children, making him a lovely addition to any household. Bear has special needs, so he requires understanding and care. Adoption fees are $600, which supports further rescue efforts. For anyone interested in welcoming Bear into their home, please reach out today!
