HOOK – A1078870
Gone - 7-10-2016 Manhattan
***GONE 07/10/16*** HOOK CAME FROM A HOME WITH OTHER ANIMALS BUT HE GOT ALONG WELL WITH EVERYONE! NOW THIS POOR BOY HAS A COLD AND WILL DIE FOR IT! HOOK is a name given most likely because this kitty has a crooked tail which may be some kind of congenital issue from birth. He was said to have lived with other cats, a dog and older children. HOOK was said to love petting and also to play and this was evident on his assessment because he was purring and leaning into the assessor’s hand. This got him a wonderful AVERAGE rating. HOOK is a regular lover boy and it is not his fault he ended up at the ACC. He would be the purrfect pet and all you need to do is ACT NOW and save his life. HOOK ONLY HAS TIL NOON AND THEN HIS TIME WILL BE OVER. PLEASE OFFER TO ADOPT OR FOSTER THIS WONDERFUL FRIENDLY PURR-BUG TONIGHT!!
