SQUIGGLES – 21297
Gone - 2-27-2018 Manhattan
DIED 2/27/18 Splendid Squiggles – nice girl needs a quiet place to recover. Squiggles came to ACC after her previous owner was moving out of state and not able to take her along. She came to us with a pyometra, had surgery right away and is recovering well. She is a little shy at first, but opens up and loves to have her chin rubbed. Squiggles would love a quiet some where she can recover and get ready to meet her new forever family!
