**SAFE 01/15/16** BEGINNER SWEETIE BEAR IS A 14 YEAR OLD SENIOR WHO WAS DUMPED AT THE SHELTER DUE TO HIS OWNER’S HEALTH – NOW HE CAUGHT A COLD AND THE EASIEST THING FOR THE ACC TO DO IS KILL HIM! BEAR came into the shelter with his housemate Kiara A1062533 who is also a senior and blind in one eye. BEAR also has need of vetting for some dental issues which is typical of cats his age. But this big love bug was said to live with adults teens and a 2 yr old and was affectionate to everyone! BEAR continued to show what a wonderful sweet disposition he has at the shelter. When the assessor came around and spoke to him he just rolled over and purred when he was petted. He gave head butts and displayed stellar behavior and they could do nothing but hand him the highest BEGINNER rating! BEAR is a super cat and he would make a superb companion to anyone. DON’T LET HIM BE ANOTHER ACC STATISTIC. GIVE BEAR A DEATH ROW PARDON TONIGHT AND REMEMBER HIS SENIOR HOUSEMATE TOO WHO IS STILL AT THE SHELTER. CONTACT A RESCUE NOW!
