SALSA – A1069844
Safe - 4-15-2016 Manhattan Rescue: Feline Rescue of SI Please honor your pledges: http://felinerescueofstatenisland.org/donation/
**SAFE 04/15/16** Who can scroll past this sweet face without clicking on his photo to learn more? Meet SALSA, a neutered young dude who entered the shelter system as a stray on April 9th. His volunteer comments refer to Salsa as a female kitty, but don’t get hung up on that little quirk. What matters is the picture they paint, of a really NICE cat who is in a really DIRE situation right now. Please be sure to read his shelter notes after reading the volunteer comments, and then share SALSA widely for a foster/adopter, tonight! “A volunteer writes: I stopped to say hello to this curled up kitty to bring her a little dinner. Even though her face was tucked behind a paw, she still had one eye peeking out at me! And when she smelled a little dinner, she thought she’d come down off her beddy and have a bite or two. She enjoyed being petted and seemed to also enjoy a little company for dinner, so I was happy I could be her dinner companion. She looked up every once in a while just to make sure I was still there. As content as sweet Salsa seemed to be, something tells me she’d love to have a forever dinner companion.”
