*** SAFE 05/28/16 *** LOYAL FAMILY CAT LOOKING FOR NEW FRIEND! TIGER is a 3 year old gray tabby boy, who was dumped off at the shelter by his “owner” because he scratched her son. Any responsible pet parent would take into consideration that perhaps the child was playing too roughly with Tiger, or that he was uncomfortable from their recent move to a new home! Instead Tiger was shoved into a cat carrier and placed on the front porch of their house, where he escaped and got into a fight with another cat. This all sounds like excuses, judging by Tiger’s behavior at the shelter. This boy earned himself an awesome AVERAGE RATING, remaining relaxed, allowing all handling and petting! His previous owner even noted him as playing nicely with the children in the home! Tiger has been given a bad wrap, and needs a new friend who will remain loyal to him FURR-EVER! But of course, the ACC wants to KILL HIM TOMORROW AT NOON for catching the shelter cold! Don’t let Tiger become another statistic, advocate for him NOW!
