Fall River Forever Paws Espeon is the perfect companion to curl up on the couch with and binge watch shows

Meet Fall River Forever Paws Pet of the Week Espeon!

Espeon is a handsome two-year-old house panther seeking his forever home. Unfortunately, he was adopted last June and returned this past February when he had some health issues crop up.

Espeon had a urinary blockage. Essentially, crystals form and block the urethra, preventing the flow of urine. This is ALWAYS an emergency and can be life threatening. To prevent another urinary blockage, Espeon will need to be on prescription urinary food for the rest of his life and his stress levels will need to be kept as low as possible. This means no small kids, no rowdy dogs, and no cats that won’t respect his space. Older kids, laidback cats, and mellow dogs should be fine. Your vet may also recommend a gabapentin regimen to keep him as stress-free as possible.

Espeon is, through and through, a couch potato. While he has spurts of playfulness, he would much rather lounge around and get some cheek scratches than chase after any toys. He’s a sweet boy with a lot of love to give and loud purrs at all times. He’ll be the perfect companion to curl up on the couch with and binge watch whatever show is your current fixation!
