***SAFE 09/27/16 *** SECOND CHANCE TONIGHT FOR SWEET SALEM!! CAT NOT WELCOME IN FLORIDA…Or to put it another way, SALEM’S owner didn’t bother to find pet friendly housing…..SALEM is a two year old licorice love who has lived with cats and dogs, he is a shoe-in for a multi-pet household….Sadly, a bunch of SALEM’S friends were dumped also. HERBIE was listed already and is SAFE and MISHKA is sadly gone…..SALEM also interacted well with children and liked to play with them. The ACC has given this wonderful cat a cheesy Experience rating but we all know better. SALEM is a great cat and would make a great companion!! If you are thinking of adopting two, you can also check out his housemates….If you need assistance, email us at [email protected]…We’d love to find a new home for SALEM!!
