**SAFE 12/03/15** LUKE IS HOPING TO ESCAPE TO A HOME FAR, FAR AWAY FROM THE ACC TONITE….A staff member writes: Luke is a wonderful kitty who needs someone with a big heart! Here at our care center he is very nervous and shy, but we can tell that he is going to make a great new family member for someone who gives him the chance. In his previous home he loved to play with children, and even had a favorite stuffed monkey he would carry around the house! Please come to our Brooklyn Care Center to meet this wonderful young cat. All he needs is someone to give a few days to settle in to a new home so he can show you how great he really is! A volunteer writes: Luke is one of several big tabby boys that I fell in love with this weekend. He is a soft brown tabby with the handsomest, black swirl pattern on his sides. Oh, and did I mention his clear green eyes? He was shy at first, tentative about sniffing my outstretched hand. But when I started petting him, Luke just rolled right into my arms and couldn’t get enough. I think that he would be the most affectionate, big lap kitty ever, if just given the chance!…..GET LUKE AWAY FROM THE ACC DEATH STAR!! APPLY TO FOSTER OR ADOPT HIM NOW!!
