LEIF – A1073570
Safe - 5-21-2016 Manhattan Rescue: Staten Island Hope Please honor your pledges: http://www.statenislandhoperescue.org/
***SAFE 05/21/16 *** TRAPPED! Given that the ACC can’t even keep his name straight in the space of 2 sentences, it’s no surprise that they were also baffled when it came time to find LEIF a home. They also called him “Sydney,” but that’s about as much quality time as he got from the ACC. They managed to get him out of the trap and into a jail cell on May 13th, but they have only warehoused him since then. They guesstimate Leif to be about 2 years old, in good health, and they plan to kill him tomorrow. Look at his luminous green eyes and ask yourself: is this cat ready to die just yet? And then, work hard to find a NEW HOPE RESCUE who can pull him to safety tonight!

Placement determination: NH ONLY Leif is displaying behaviors that preclude placement in the adoptions room.
