**SAFE 07/02/16** PERFECTLY HEALTHY TOMMY WAS DUMPED BY HIS OWNER FOR PERSONAL PROBLEMS – NOW TOMMY IS THE ONE WITH THE BIGGEST PROBLEM – HE NEEDS RESCUE BY 12 NOON WEDNESDAY OR HE DIES!! TOMMY is a very handsome neutered boy who is not quite one and a half years old. His owner brought him in citing personal problems but sadly, his cat was not happy about being abandoned and because he is shy and not jumping through hoops for the ACC, they will kill him. Tommy was described as playful and well behaved in his home, and didn’t mind being bathed and brushed. He used his scratch post faithfully. TOMMY IS A PURRFECT HOUSE CAT!!! DON’T LET THE ACC END TOMMY’S LIFE AT NOON – PLEASE CONTACT A RESCUE NOW TO PULL HIM TO SAFETY.

Tommy has never been around dogs or other cats so the owner has no idea how Tommy would react around them. Reaction to assessor: Tommy looks tense in the cage when approached by the assessor. Reaction to door opening: Tommy remains standing at the front of the cage, stress meowing in place, alert with eyes wide open. Reaction to touch: Tommy accepts the stroke, but seems conflicted then began to nip, hiss, and swat while he solicits attention. Placement determination: Experience / no child Tommy tolerates attention and petting but may be stressed in the shelter, and may be intimidated by small children.
