FRANCISCO – A1080686
Safe - 7-24-2016 Manhattan Rescue: Ready For Rescue Please honor your pledges: Paypal address: [email protected]
*** SAFE 07/24/16 *** INJURED AND NEW HOPE RATED! Taken to the ACC by his former owners after seemingly being bitten by a DOG, poor FRANCISCO was left behind in circumstances that can only be described as “tragic.” He endured a 10-day DOH hold for being the VICTIM of a bite, and once the ACC was able to include him on the roster of killable cats, they wasted NO TIME in doing so. This guy still managed to earn a respectable EXPERIENCE rating and needs SOMEONE in his corner who, one, gives a damn about him, and two, is able to help him heal. That calls for a NEW HOPE rescue, but those rescues can only pull when they have a sane, drama-free, reliable person lined up to foster or adopt. Make sure FRANCISCO’s story gets a happy ending by finding a NEW HOPE rescue to pull him to safety tonight!
