NALA – A1117588
Safe - 7-18-2017 Manhattan
***SAFE 07/18/17*** HEAD-BUTTING AND PURRING NALA HAS A COLD AND IS HOPING AN ADOPTER OR FOSTER WILL SAVE HER LIFE!! A volunteer writes: Sweet, pretty Nala knows a secret that not every cat is lucky enough to know. She knows that kitty cheeks and foreheads are made for petting by people. When you visit Nala while she’s lounging in her cubbie, she springs to her feet to greet you. As you are petting her, she peeks out and looks around to take in the view and check out whether any of the other cats are getting as much attention as she is. But it’s clear that there’s no place she’d rather be than up close and personal with you, soaking up a massage for as long as her new human friend is willing to give it. Nala has the calm dignity of a cat who’s no longer in the throes of crazy kittenhood, but she’s still sporting the vitality of her 4 years of youth. She’s calm when you hold her, and that’s the first thing you’ll want to do when you meet her. The second thing you’ll want is to give her a huge snuggle and take her home.
NALA & PRIM (not listed tonight) were both surrendered to the shelter because their owner is moving. NALA & PRIM would appreciate for someone to open up their heart and home so they can both have a home again. MUST RESERVE BY NOON!!
