BABY – A1082510
Gone - 7-27-2016 Manhattan
***GONE 07/27/16*** BABY AND HER HOUSEMATE WERE DUMPED FOR MOVING AND NOW BABY FACES DEATH AT NOON! BABY and her housemate SLIDER – A1082511 were dumped at the ACC for their owner moving – which is really no reason to get rid of a pet!! But wait- we see that BABY was brought into the ACC in not so great shape – being dehydrated and having a stance which could be a sign of some other underlying issue. She will need a full vet exam upon rescue. BABY is a super sweet, gentle and affectionate cat who lived with young children and was great with them! She loves to play and be picked up. BABY seems like a wonderful cat but her owner probably didn’t want to vet her so she was dumped at the kill shelter instead! BABY DESERVES BETTER AND YOU CAN HELP HER TONIGHT. EMAIL THE HELP DESK AT [email protected] FOR RESCUE INFO. AND DON’T FORGET ABOUT HER PAL SLIDER. BABY NEEDS A RESCUE ANGEL – FOSTERING WILL SAVE HER LIFE!! DON’T TURN HER AWAY – HELP BABY NOW!!
