PRECIOUS – A1117959
Safe - 8-2-2017 Staten Island
*** SAFE 08/02/17 *** Precious is a sweet kitty that will come greet you immediately when you walk up to her cage and say hi. She was brought to us with other kitties because her owner is having personal problems. She is currently on treatment for a kitty cold and needs placement immediately.
A volunteer writes: Her name says it all. Precious is a very sweet, but shy girl. She loves to be spoken to, and would gladly accept a treat when offered. The cat parent with lots of patience and love in their heart could help Precious overcome her shyness and help her become a confident kitty who would enjoy her new home and life to the max.
***Precious and 3 housemates found themselves at the shelter when their owner had “personal problems”. Please adopt this spayed girl and maybe one of her pals?
