***GONE 12/05/15***GORGEOUS GARFIELD THE SWEET GINGERBREAD MAN NEEDS NEW FRIEND! Garfield is a six year old neutered gingerbread man who was sadly surrendered when his family moved out of state and did not take him along. This great guy lived with his family since he was a kitten and is used to being around kids with whom he loved to cuddle. He is described as relaxed and mellow. In other words, he is a typical orange boy who would be a great companion to just about anyone. But poor Garfield won’t live past tomorrow afternoon if we don’t do everything we can to advocate for him tonight. Please reserve this precious pet online tonight or let a rescue know if you can help. Transportation is available. Garfield would love a new home for the holidays and furever.
