**SAFE 8/02/16** BEGINNER RATED KITTY ALERT!!! A volunteer writes: Beautiful Basil also happens to be an eager and fantastic lap cat. He seemed to crawl on to my lap as soon as I opened his condo door. Tucking his head into my leg, he purred and kneaded away, happy for the extra attention. Brought in as a stray, Basil was equally as happy to get some extra snacks – he has a little weight to gain. If you have been looking for a friendly cat with great cuddling capabilities, come meet Basil at the Manhattan Care Center! BASIL HAS TILL NOON TO BE SAVED – PLEASE STEP UP NOW TO SAVE HIM!
