KOVU – 14303
Gone - 11-24-2017 Manhattan
GONE 11/24/17 Poor KOVU was brought in with a sticky substance all over his body. He was lethargic and hypothermic but KOVU is a very sweet boy. He has possible chemical burns on his lips and is being monitored for any sign of ingesting chemical. KOVU needs a special purrson to give him a home and some TLC and vet care til he can recover from whatever his ordeal was. Sweet KOVU is about 6 yrs old and already neutered. Please help him today!
