SPUNKY – A1049489
Urgent 9-9-2015 Manhattan Rescue: Staten Island Hope Please honor your pledges: http://www.statenislandhoperescue.org/
**SAFE 09/09/15** SPUNKY is a gorgeous young lady whose sleek coat and trusting behavior strongly suggest that she is someone’s lost pet. She came into the shelter system as a stray near the end of August, where she immediately “rolled onto her side and pawed at the table while being petted” during her initial medical exam. How cool is that? Spunky earned a wonderful AVERAGE rating so she can be reserved on the ACC website by someone who can adopt her in person within the next 48 hours, or you can work with a New Hope rescue group to foster or adopt her. Either way, the ONE thing that will save Spunky’s life tomorrow, is that ONE person who commits to foster/adopting her tonight. Find that rescue hero for SPUNKY so hers can be the next beautiful face in the Safe album!
