PEPPERCORN – A1067117
Safe - 3-16-2016 Manhattan
***SAFE 03/16/16*** BEGINNER DREAMBOAT! Meet PEPPERCORN, a neutered young dude who pretty much sums up the word “adoptable.” You will have seen that word used on various ACC website pages, where they talk about how many homes they find for ADOPTABLE animals each year, or where they claim to not kill ADOPTABLE animals like Peppercorn. And yet here they are, planning to do what they claim they don’t, and why? Ostensibly because he sneezed, but the truth is just that he symbolizes their own failure. They are all set to kill Peppercorn just because they aren’t all that hot at what they do. Their inability to ADOPT A BEGINNER RATED CAT, combined with their inability to keep their facility clean, adds up to a GREAT BOY whose life is in grave danger. Whatever else you had planned for tonight, please set it all aside. Advocate fiercely for PEPPERCORN, tonight!
