CRAYOLA – 25297
Safe - 9-15-2018 Manhattan
SAFE 9/15/18 – Her foster mom writes: This little pumpkin is happy, happy, happy. She’s tiny like a kitten, but she loves her kibble and gruel so much that we should have her fattened up in no time. She sports an interesting and pretty orange and black coat and she can’t enough attention. She does figure 8’s around my legs and her meows are like little “bips.” What I particularly like, and we can’t promise this will always be true, is that she seems entirely unaware that her paws have claws and her mouth has teeth. Unlike many young, energetic cats, she plays and seeks attention very gently. She’s got the complete package of cuteness and personality. You can come meet her any time.
CRAYOLA was brought in by the person who was feeding her because she noticed she was not feeling well. Crayola has a URI and is congested and needs a home asap where she can get TLC and recuperate.
