SIMBA – A1051064
Gone 9-22-2015 Brooklyn
**GONE 09/22/15** SIMBA is a NEUTERED senior gent who enjoys playing with balls, string and catnip but who is about to die because his owner had no one else lined up to care for him. That person has passed on and SIMBA was brought to the ACC, which has warehoused him and listed him tonight with conflicting ages. No matter how old this guy is, he still needs a FOSTER or ADOPTER to beam unconditional love toward for the remainder of his time on earth. Please make sure to find his hero, tonight!
