CHEEBA – A1084643
Gone - 8-14-2016 Brooklyn
***GONE 08/14/16*** LIKE FINE WINE, CHEEBA IS GETTING BETTER WITH AGE!! What an adorable boy CHEEBA is!! This senior gentleman was supposedly found as a stray and brought to ACC. It seems CHEEBA is drinking a lot of water and has some common senior issues that need to be addressed by a competent vet. This guy has plenty of life left in him and deserves a place to live out his golden years. Advocate for this sweet older guy tonight before it’s too late!
