PENGUIN – A1077777
Safe - 6-29-2016 Manhattan
**SAFE 06/29/16** FRIENDLY PENGUIN WAS FOUND IN THE BRONX – BUT FINDER DECIDED SHE COULD NOT KEEP – NOW WITH A COLD POOR PENGUIN WILL DIE WITHOUT IMMEDIATE RESCUE!! PENGUIN is a very friendly kitty who was found in an open carrier on a bench in the Bronx. His finder kept him for 2 weeks and said he was a great cat and got along well with her 7 yr old. Sadly because she already had a female kitty, she said she couldn’t keep PENGUIN because he was a male cat and had kept them separate. We guess she didn’t want to bother neutering this sweet boy. PENGUIN was purring and leaning into petting on his assessment and got a great AVERAGE rating. PENGUIN IS A WONDERFUL KITTY WHO NEEDS A GREAT HOME OR HE WILL END UP ANOTHER ACC STATISTIC. CAN YOU ADOPT OR FOSTER THIS TUXIE BOY? EMAIL [email protected] FOR RESCUE CONTACT INFO.
