SAMANTHA – A0809239 aka A1078738
Gone - 7-7-2016 Manhattan
***GONE 07/07/16*** SWEET SENIOR GAL NEEDS RETIREMENT HOME TONIGHT!! SAMANTHA is an adorable 11 year old SPAYED lady, who was adopted out from the ACC a while back, and was dumped back off under the label of “stray”. This poor girl is sweet as pie, and needs so desperately to find a loving furr-ever home to spend her golden years in. This AVERAGE RATED girl inspired not one, but two volunteers to write these notes about her : “My name is Samantha, and I’m an 11 years young gal. I have a teeny body and big eyes and a really big heart. I love spending time with human friends. I give them head butts, and head rubs are the absolute best. Sometimes I get so excited to see my human friends that I put my whole head in their hands so they can really give me some good lovin’! What I would really love is a furever home where I can be a furry companion (and get more of those great head rubs!) I hope you will consider adopting me.” Another volunteer writes: Samantha’s no witch, but she is delightfully snuggly, and I guarantee it won’t be long before you, too, fall under the spell of this affectionate, sweet-natured senior. As soon as I open her door she comes to the front for petting, and pushes her bony little head deep into my hand while her motor revs up to maximum purr power. I rub her back and she arches up with joy, I scratch the side of her face and she stretches into it, I lean closer and she boops her tiny nose against mine. We cuddle some more and I take a quick photo before shutting the door and trying to move on to the next needy cat, but Sammy’s already put out a paw to beg me back again, and I just can’t resist! This good girl deserves to spend her retirement being adored and pampered every single day, so please don’t delay, welcome Samantha home today and show her just how magical life in a forever family can be!” Samantha needs your help RIGHT NOW in order to make it out of the ACC alive. Please consider FOSTERING/ADOPTING her! Don’t hesitate, act NOW!
