BABYBOY – A1051712
Safe 10-8-2015 Manhattan
***SAFE 10/08/15*** SWEET BABYBOY WAS CARTED OFF TO ACC BECAUSE OF SOMEONE’S ALLERGIES! NOW HE’LL LOSE HIS LIFE WITHOUT YOUR HELP! BABYBOY was brought in with Skinny, who is 16 and was lucky to be saved…but black cats, no matter how sweet and gentle-and he is that, often have a harder time finding someone to take them. There’s no logic-he’s a gentle kindly boy with a playful nature and easy to handle. Now, he’s made the dreaded ‘list’ and needs your help! This sweet boy has lived with other cats and would make a great foster, he gets on with other cats just fine, and likes people. Won’t you say yes and help this gentle boy to find his way out of ACC alive? Please foster-he’ll be so grateful! SAVE BABYBOY TONIGHT!!!!
