His story started at a municipal shelter in New York City, where Whiskers-A-GoGo rescued him and brought him into their care. Initially, everyone believed his wound was healing normally. However, after several weeks, his rescuers noticed something troubling. The injury wasn’t improving, and Sir Purr continued scratching the affected area.

The wound was located in a difficult spot, making it nearly impossible to protect. Traditional cones weren’t suitable, and every bandage placed on him was quickly removed. His constant scratching only made things worse, resulting in repeated veterinary visits.

Eventually, the Neighborhood Vet in Bushwick stepped in to investigate. After numerous examinations, diagnostic tests, and consultations with skin specialists, the mystery was finally solved. Sir Purr was suffering from skin irritation and allergies. Fortunately, with appropriate treatment, his recovery could finally begin.
