\u2018Tupac\u2019 suffered broken femur<\/h2>

He was taken to an emergency clinic, where the staff named him “Tupac” and determined that he had a broken femur. Bayou Animal Services & Adoption Center says he also had BBs through his body from being shot.<\/p>

What they’re saying:<\/p>

In a Facebook post, Bayou Animal Services & Adoption Center said, “We do not know how long he has suffered. We do not know who hurt him. We do not know how anyone could leave him there. But we do know this: He never once tried to bite. He never once growled. He never stopped being sweet.”<\/p>

What’s next:<\/p>

Officials say he is resting, eating and sleeping, but his broken leg could leave him with a long road to recovery. For information on how to help, click here.<\/p>
