***SAFE 03/06/16*** VICTIM OF HOUSE FIRE, BABY SURVIVED BUT NOW IS IN DANGER OF LOSING HIS LIFE! BABY is a sweet, neutered boy who’s home was destroyed in a fire. A volunteer writes: There was never a more perfectly-named cat! Baby is the biggest baby boy! Of course, he’s an older cat, but a baby at heart. He is one of the most interactive cats in the shelter. He lets you cup his head in your hands and just scratch all around his chin and ears, and then he comes forward and wants to climb up in your arms and nestle his head in your neck. He meows and purrs, and I just know that he’s smiling and oh so happy inside. Baby’s eyes shine, and you just want to cuddle him and wrap him up and take him home.’ BABY has lived with other cats, little children, and a dog. Please save his life!!!!
