BABY CAKES – A1047897
8-20-2015 Manhattan Rescue: All Sentient Beings Please honor your pledges: http://animalloversnetwork.org/
***SAFE 8/20/15***Sweet little BABY CAKES is only 3-4 months old. She was born into a home and her best friend was a one year old baby. Now her owners have decided they can’t afford to care for her anymore, so this young sweetie is on death row’s list today. She loves attention and petting and is playful but is understandably nervous and needs time to warm up to her home. She should go to an experienced home. Please foster or adopt Baby Cakes and save this sweet angel’s life tonight
