ALMOND – A1041182
7-9-2015 Manhattan
**GONE 07/09/15** Sweet ALMOND has a BEGINNER rating and has survived major head trauma…in fact, the ACC has nursed him back to health, ONLY to kill him tomorrow. SHAME!! This is a friendly, young, adoptable cat who needs the backing of a New Hope rescue partner and a foster/adopter tonight. ALMOND is so friendly and loving, despite everything he has been through, and despite his need for some continued medical care. Do NOT let this great cat be lost to a brutally large list, at the bloodthirsty ACC. Work with a New Hope partner to save ALMOND, tonight!

06/23/2015 PET PROFILE MEMO
06/23/15 13:51 Almond was found in the stairwell of a residential building. His finders reported that he didn’t move or walk much. When he arrived, he sat crouched. He allowed us to pick up and handle him and scanned negative for a microchip. He was bleeding from his nose and left eye. We put him in a carrier. When we checked on him a few minutes later, he was lying on his side with his head leaning over on his abdomen, with very shallow, slow breathing. He was unresponsive. He was rushed from BxAC to MACC for medical attention.
