***SAFE 09/11/16***MI VIEJO IS A GORGEOUS AND LOVING YOUNG MAN!!! A volunteer writes, ” I stopped in to see Mi Viejo, literally “my old man” in Spanish, who is only a couple of years old and looking like he could use some company. “MV,” as I call him, hangs out in the front of his kennel, watching everyone and everything going on. “Hey big boy,” I said, as I took a look at the note on his kennel card, “want some attention?” MV stood right up, and although his behavior evaluation notes that he would work best in a household with experienced cat companions, he lowered his big, fluffy head and waited patiently for me to start rubbing it. He couldn’t get enough loving, and he didn’t stop purring. I think that MV is ready to become the king kat of someone’s household so that he can get the attention he deserves. King MV, now there’s a proper name for this big boy!” Doesn’t this two year old sweetie sound positively purrfect? Please let us know if you can help Mi Viejo. Email our help desk–[email protected] Mi Viejo’s amigo mejor (best friend), Chiquita was already moved to safe haven. Let’s do the same for this handsome sweet chap. Make the call for Mi Viejo!
