More: He is a rescue from a shelter in Asheville, NC. Davis was surrendered by his owner at 5 years old, as his owner was terminally ill and could no longer care for him. Davis sat in the shelter, depressed and physically sick for 2 months before I found him. When I signed the paperwork to adopt him, I was handed a letter written by his original owner detailing his love for Davis and what Davis’ favorite things were. I still have the letter, and it is framed above Davis’ bed to this day 4 years later.
