Safe - 8-8-2018 Brooklyn
SAFE 8/8/18 – Bugino is a black neutered older domestic short hair.He was adopted from us 9 years ago and has been with the owner ever since. The owner is surrendering due to medical health with them. There are no injuries or health concern with Bugino. The last time her went to the vet was 8 years ago. A volunteer writes: Well Mr. Bugino is a very nice chap even though he does not know why such a regal guy as he would have that name. Caesar, Cyrus or Prince do a better job of describing this noble kitty. He is as sleek and handsome as a panther but as gentle and good-natured as can be. He waited patiently just observing peacefully but was purring and happy when it was his turn to get treats and a head massage. He is a majestic sweet soul, definitely a keeper. Don’t Wait!!!!
