Critter Details

  Are you looking for a handsome and loyal friend to forever be in your corner? Rocky is more than ready to fill that role! Sure to be a quick building and irresistible addiction, Rocky just wants to be by your side and keep you active with his requests for attention and pets.  Rocky found his way to PAWS after being surrendered to the city shelter due to the health of his previous owner. Seeing as how he has not been afraid to make his presence known and eagerly tries to make friends with everyone who comes close, Rocky would do well in any home where he can be the center of and get all of the attention you have to spare. The price of admission for that level of devotion is well worth it, we're sure of it.  Don't worry, Rocky isn't crying tears of sadness, or of joy, he just has some blocked tears ducts that cause him to have some drainage. He shouldn't need any extension care for that, but you should bring it up with your vet in case he needs drops or additional care for it. Daily needs would just involve going through an extra box of tissues a month, and some extra cuddles to balance it out. Rocky could also use a little attention to his diet and shed a few pounds to get back to a good weight.   Age: ~10 years old How I came to PAWS: Owner Surrender Animal ID#: A180208 Meet me at: I am currently at the Grays Ferry Clinic, which is not a walk-in facility.
