BJ – A1062690
Gone - 1-19-2016 Manhattan
**GONE 01/19/16** BJ IS AN AVERAGE RATED KITTY WITH AN ULCER ON HIS UPPER LIP – SO THE ACC HAS DECIDED THIS IS ENOUGH TO END HIS LIFE TUESDAY! BJ came into the shelter as a stray so not much is known of his past. He is about a year old – only a grown kitten! BJ has an ulcer on his upper lip which needs to be evaluated by a competent vet and not have a speculated diagnosis by the ACC. He has been friendly and easy to handle from day 1 at the shelter, and rocked an AVERAGE RATING. BJ needs you to spare his life so he can get the treatment he needs. Fostering will save his life, get him vetted and given time to find a purrmanent home! IF YOU CAN HELP THIS SWEET BOY TONIGHT PLEASE CONTACT A RESCUE NOW TO PULL HIM TO SAFETY!
