HENNY – A1110854
Safe - 5-3-2017 Manhattan
SAFE 5/3/17 ***Must Find Placement by 6pm*** Meet Henny: When I went to meet this cutie, he was snoozing peacefully so I didn’t want to disturb him! Take my word for it though, Henny is very, very cute. Henny is about 4 weeks old but is underweight – he’s only 0.3 lbs.! Although his deciduous teeth are present, we believe because he has a severe URI and conjunctivitis, he does not have an appetite, so he is currently not eating on his own. We have been syringe feeding him wet food mixed with KMR. Give Henny the TLC he deserves and he will repay your kindness with lots of purrs and kitty kisses! He does need placement by 6pm today, 5/3/17.
