Henry

Henry has been failed twice. Let’s make sure he’s loved for the rest of his life 🐾

Meet Henry, a 7-year-old boy with a playful spirit, a love for snuggles, and a story that will break your heart.

In 2020, Henry arrived at Louisville Metro Animal Services as a skinny stray. He got healthy, found a home, and we hoped his days of going without were behind him.
But three weeks ago, Henry returned to the shelter. He was skinny again, covered in fleas, and dirty. 💔

He had been living in a basement with inconsistent access to food, water, or the outdoors. And yet, even after everything he had been through, his toes would tap dance whenever someone looked his way.

When his foster learned Henry had been failed more than once, she couldn’t leave him behind. With regular meals, a good bath, and a safe place to land, Henry began to come back to life.

He’s still gaining weight, but his bones are becoming less visible and his sweet personality is shining through. Henry is playful, smart, oh-so-snuggly, and completely house trained. Knowing how long he may have tried to hold it while waiting for a chance to go outside makes what he endured even harder to imagine.

At 7 years old, Henry still has so much life to live and so much love to give and has recently found a forever home! Yeah, Henry!!!!!!!!
