Mochi

My story

Mochi was abandoned with the rest of his litter (four kittens) on a farm around October of 2024. He was the last of the kittens rescued it shows in his case of sniffles that never seem to go away. The rest of his siblings were adopted quickly but due to his “crustyness” he never managed to find a home. We became permanent fosters for him, not caring if he sneezed a little. We visited doctor after doctor and tried antibiotics, steroids, and special foods but nothing seemed to help. Around June of ‘25 the licking started. Mochi began licking and scratching himself bald across his body. Despite cones, bread (as seen in the picture), prescription ointments, $50 monthly shots, a raw food diet, and even weekly baths nothing seems to help for very long. Unfortunately we just can’t afford to continue trying to help him by finding what will help him. I can’t watch him hurt himself anymore. He’s the sweetest, cuddly boy and I hate to think of ever giving him up. I just want someone to help him.

If you have any questions or would like to adopt Mochi, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
