Our research showed that Felix ‘suffers from serious dental problems that should be treated urgently medically. He also needs pain treatment for his joint problems for his joint problems.

Emotional moments
From “Heart -warming scenes when he first started digging a well and built his first bed from the tight”, the club reports four legs before arrival in the Bärenwald Arbesbach in the lower Austrian district of Zwettl. In almost eight -hour transport under general anesthesia, the bear of Kočevje was saved in southeastern Slovenia.
“It was a very emotional moment for us when we could welcome ‘Felix’ in his new house. The salvation and transport went without problems, and” Felix “can finally start a better life,” says Eva Rosenberg, director of four Paws Austria.

Targeted treatment is necessary: ”Felix” visibly suffers from the effects of his poor posture, but also with age -related symptoms, such as poor eyesight and a degenerative joint disease, which causes stiffness of the hind legs.
On 34, Bär “Felix” is a sweet oldie, and four legs are happy, for the time that the animal remains to finally make a life that is worth bears. “It is so nice that after years on a bare concrete he can now feel soft land under his legs.

Experience has shown that the settlement for older animals can be a challenge,” hopes Patricia Tippleea, head of the four-legs wild animals rescue, complicity.
Waldviertel as a new home
After “Felix” spent his entire life in captivity, he can finally explore trees, bushes, stones and a large pond in his forest -like outdoor housing.
