Profile:
08/16/16 14:37
Aurelio A1085553 an 11yr old neutered male black & white DSH who is currently very matted is being surrendered with his slightly younger brother Armando A1085552 a 10yr old neutered male white & orange tabby DSH feline due to their owner passing away a couple of weeks ago in the Bronx. The super couldn’t find someone to take them and isn’t able to keep them themselves. They stated they didn’t seem to mind being placed into a carrier.
During intake Aurelio allowed all handling. When taken out of his carrier (which was shared with Armando) Aurelio began meowing but didn’t resist being taken out. Once out he laid on the back drop table which made picture taking simple. Aurelio didn’t seem to mind being picked up/held and was placed into a kennel with ease.
