DOUG – A1079965
Safe - 9-15-2016 Brooklyn
*** SAFE 09/15/16 *** DARLING DOUG IS A LADY!!…..A volunteer writes: Doug is a pint-sized honey bun who summons you to her cage with a cute raspy little meow and then offers up her cream-colored noggin for head rubs, which she seems to accept in limitless quantities. I’m not quite sure how she came to be named Doug, but she does remind me of an easygoing tomboy–the sort of girl who watches ESPN with you, prefers chili dogs to sustainable probiotics, and plays a reliable second base on your weekend softball team. She was brought to us from Little Neck, Queens, wearing a miniature Mike Piazza jersey (OK, I made up that last part), and she would love to go home with you, even if you favor that other team, the one in the Bronx. So don’t wait around until the boys of summer hang up their cleats–come down to Brooklyn ACC and make this little cutie the newest member of your family….DON’T WAIT, THE ACC WON’T…..APPLY NOW!!
