SAHARA – A1075734
Gone - 6-4-2016 Manhattan
*** GONE 06/04/16 *** SAHARA is a 3 year old tabby cat who came into the ACC as a stray. She’s listed as New Hope RESCUE ONLY due to some medical issues that need to be addressed once she leaves the ACC. This young girl needs your help tonight if she is to see tomorrow. She is named after a desert but she is anything but that. She has plenty of life to live but won’t experience anything unless you apply to a New Hope PARTNER TONIGHT!

Reaction to touch: Sahara does not allow the stroke, bites and growls at the assessor’s hand while attempting to retreat.
