Stinky - Cat
Stinky is Symphony Vet Center's resident cat. She loves to be petted and she'll hook her claw into your pants hem
if you try to walk away before she has gotten her fill. Due to a car accident when she was a kitten, Stinky is
partially paralyzed and incontinent (thus the name Stinky), but she is surprisingly agile and able to get around.
Despite being on permanent medication, she couldn't be happier living as our hospital cat.
