Sinbad the Survivor was found in a neglected state, with matted fur, in the basement of an elderly man's home. The man was unable to take care of Sinbad and surrendered him to The Anti-Cruelty Society of Chicago. Sinbad required hours of grooming to remove the tangled fur and filth he had been dragging around.

After the grooming, Sinbad weighed only 7 lbs, having been carrying around over 5 lbs of matted fur. Sinbad needed some special care to regain his appetite and was taken home by a man named Elliot to foster for a few days. On the second day, Sinbad snuggled up to Elliot and they became best friends. Sinbad now has a forever home with Elliot.

Despite his difficult past, Sinbad continues to bring joy and entertainment with his adorable Persian smush face. To keep up with Sinbad's adventures, follow him on Instagram or Facebook.
