EINSTEIN – A1115012
Safe - 6-12-2017 Manhattan
SAFE 6/12/17 Meet Einstein: You don’t have to be a genius to know taking Einstein is a brilliant idea! She does have teeth present but she is not currently eating on her own, most likely due to her URI and conjunctivitis. Einstein is feeling under the weather but with some TLC she’ll be back on her paws in no time!
