AUTUMN – A1080852
Safe - 7-31-2016 Brooklyn
***SAFE 07/31/16*** *SECOND CHANCE FOR AUTUMN–LET’S MAKE IT COUNT!!!They became “ALLERGIC” to AUTUMN after owning her for 14 years?! Incredible! Professional writers of fiction would have a hard time selling that story to an editor, yet that’s the story Autumn’s former owners “sold” to the ACC. They also managed to relieve themselves of her housemate, Mia, who is not on the list tonight. AUTUMN is spayed, gentle, earned a perfect BEGINNER rating and is said to have been good with young kiddos and dogs! It will be a crying shame if this GOOD GIRL is KILLED tomorrow, but don’t underestimate the ACC’s ruthless adherence to plan; they will start ripping cats out of their cages at NOON tomorrow, and poor AUTUMN COULD BE THE FIRST TO DIE. There must be someone who would appreciate more love in their life, who can foster/adopt this good girl? She had loved ONE FAMILY since being gifted to them as a KITTEN, but AUTUMN is looking to turn over a new leaf—help her do that by finding a FOSTER/ADOPTER for her tonight!
