POOHIE – A1082605
Gone - 7-27-2016 Manhattan
***GONE 07/27/16*** Poohie’s owners had NO TIME for him!!!! What a gem of a cat – Poohie lived with a Rottweiler and knew when his owner was having a bad day. It really isn’t fair that friendly and sweet Poohie got dumped at ACC. He seems to have possible bronchitis and could benefit from a trip to a competent vet. Let’s work to get Poohie out of the shelter and into a home where he will be given ALL the time in the world!
