Meet Lincoln

Lincoln entered this world in a foster home through our Adirondack Region Cat Adoption Center in Glens Falls, NY. Three months later he presented with some concerning symptoms: persistent diarrhea, lethargy, strained mobility and pain. With a primary diagnosis of congenital rickets (a vitamin D deficiency), he was transferred to the Port Washington campus for treatment at our American Animal Hospital Association-accredited Pet Health Centers.

Lincoln was further diagnosed with hypocalcemia and recurring bowel issues due to a narrowed pelvis. It took several months for the effects of medication and whole lot of TLC in our Feline Care Home to take hold, but Lincoln improved well beyond expectations. Thank you for sponsoring sweet Lincoln, providing him with lifetime medication and special care.

A donation to our Pet Sponsorship Program will provide Lincoln, and all our Sponsor animals, with a lifetime of compassionate care.

Lincoln (aka Leon) has settled in quickly into his new home and is earning his keep with his hilarious antics. While he can be “quite the little stinker” with his senior feline siblings, mom Chloe said they are quick to gently put him in his place! Chloe also commented that “we cannot imagine life before Leon anymore, and would prefer not to! He is thriving and living his very best life…as are we. Tremendous thank you to the sponsors who enable this little guy to live the life he deserves!”

Lincoln (aka Leon) has made a seamless transition into his adoring new family. Mom Chloe said when she first saw his photo, she knew that although his medical condition would require a lot of work, “he deserved to spend his life in a home surrounded by love. I’ve adopted seniors for years, and I just knew Leon needed us as much as we needed him. He is the happiest cat I’ve ever known despite his challenges. For however long we have with this special guy, Leon has stolen our hearts forever.”
