“I’m a 4-year-old neutered male. I am thankful a sweet soul found me for I have been able to receive the medical care I needed. You see, I have a disease the humans call Progres- sive Retinal Atrophy. I’ve probably had it since birth, but the hard part about this disease is it gets worse with time, so while I am not fully blind right now, I will be blind in the future. However, this disease is not painful. I am an affec- tionate, friendly guy — I just soak up the attention! Though, I must admit, I do have moments of frustration. Patience and perhaps keeping the furniture arranged the same way is key. So, if you have room in your heart and home, call us.”
