SNOOKIE – A1084505
Safe - 8-20-2016 Brooklyn Rescue: Zani's Please honor your pledges: http://zanisfurryfriends.org/
**SAFE 08/20/16** UNBELIEVABLE THIRD CHANCE FOR SNOOKIE! SNOOKIE is a 6-year-old sweetie who was owned by people who wanted her to be killed, just to free them up to move into some dive where cats aren’t welcome. That’s right, check her ACC biography carefully; this girl was brought in by people who said she was “old and sick” and should be killed, oh, and she also was an inconvenience to them with their upcoming move an all. It’s not every day that the ACC decide NOT to kill a cat when someone essentially hands a cat over and says, “do this one next,” but even the ACC noted: “Do not recommend humane euthanasia as this cat is neither old nor in pain. She appears less than 7 yrs and is quite sweet. ” That was on August 7th, and now that it’s August 16th they have changed their tune, and scheduled her to die tomorrow. They no longer think she might be pregnant, and seem to suspect there is another reason behind her history of not eating well for them. SNOOKIE earned a perfect AVERAGE rating and needs some loving person to check out why she’s not feeling her best, and then to make everything right in her world. Please make sure she gets what she needs by advocating RESOUNDINGLY for SNOOKIE, tonight!
