CAIRO – 33710
Safe - 7-10-2018 Brooklyn
SAFE 7/10/18 CAIRO is a very sweet 3 year old girl who has not eaten or used the litterbox in 4 days. So her owner dumped her at the shelter rather than take this poor kitty to the vet. Cairo needs a home where she can get some follow up care to see what is wrong.
