**SAFE 10/14/16 QUIMBY HAS A QUESTION…WILL SOMEONE SAVE HIM TONITE??
QUIMBY’S former owners moved but somehow QUIMBY ended up in front of his old house…..There are questions that arise as to how this happened but right now it’s too late for questions and time for action!! This ebony lad is an all out BEGINNER!! Purrs, head-butts and is all about affection!! Sadly, QUIMBY (who has been at the ACC since the beginning of August) caught their unsanitary cold and is listed tonight!! QUIMBY also got along with the finder’s cats and used the litterbox…..QUIMBY IS THE TOTAL PACKAGE!! Don’t wait, the ACC won’t tomorrow!! APPLY TO FOSTER OR ADOPT HIM NOW!!

He begins to purr and is very affectionate throughout the interaction. Reaction to being picked up: Quimby remains calm and allows handling.
