LILU – A1083977
Safe - 8-26-2016 Manhattan
**SAFE 08/26/16** Minding his own business turned out to be the undoing of handsome LILU, a 12-month-old boy who was snatched up by someone and carried to the ACC. Plenty of young, active kittens or cats won’t allow themselves to be carried the length of a room, much less the distance from the 10462 zip code to the intake counter at Manhattan Center, which is to speak highly of LILU’s character. This fine fellow earned an AVERAGE rating from the ACC, who has simply warehoused him in a cage and ultimately, decided to kill him. Doesn’t this NICE CAT deserve a happily-ever-after? Make that possible by advocating widely for LILU, tonight!
