Rosco first arrived at the Humane Society of El Paso 344 days ago, he was surrendered by his family full of rashes and scabs . They were informed by their vet that he suffered from allergies and was placed on medications.

Prince

1 year old 

Prince arrived at HSEP on March 17th, 2022, he is a very friendly and affectionate kitty. He was surrendered because his family could not afford the treatment he needed for his condition. Prince was diagnosed with Entropion, which is a genetic condition in which a portion of the eyelid is inverted or folded inward against the eyeball. This condition results in irritation and scratches to the cornea- leading to corneal ulceration, or corneal perforation. Since arriving at our facility Prince has already had surgery and is recovering.
