Hello,
My name is Frankie, and I am a one-year-oldĀ purebred Shih Tzu. When START II rescued me from a high kill shelter, they realized I had been hit by a car and had a broken shoulder. I underwent orthopedic surgery on January 6, 2010 to repair it, and now I have two external pins that have to stay in place until my bones heal.

Buy a great toy for your cat and help support START II!
