NERO – A1054176
Safe 10-20-2015 Brooklyn Rescue: Staten Island Hope Please honor your pledges: http://www.statenislandhoperescue.org/
**SAFE 10/20/15** What’s the difference between AVERAGE-rated NERO, and the cats who live with many people who are reading this blurb? Those cats all have homes, and NERO does not. There is nothing “wrong” with NERO, there is nothing “broken” about NERO, there is nothing “undesirable” about NERO. His shelter noted show him to be clean, healthy, well-mannered, and he’s probably a lost family pet. To every animal owner out there: If your much-loved pet got lost, and wound up at the shelter, and was scheduled to die….If you did not know your pet was in such danger, wouldn’t you want someone to step up and be a lifesaver? Anyone whose answer was YES, please honor your own pet by stepping up in some way for NERO tonight! Please pledge toward his care, please share his story far and wide. And if you have room in your heart and home, please FOSTER or ADOPT NERO, right now!
