ANGELICA – A1035631
5-19-2015 Manhattan
***GONE 05/19/15*** ANGELICA IS A CONFUSED KITTY WHO NEEDS SOMEONE TO GIVE HER A CHANCE FOR A FUREVER HOME! ANGELICA had the bad luck of having her original owner abandon her when he moved. A neighbor took her in and has had her for a little over a year. ANGELICA was used to being an indoor / outdoor kitty, so when her current owner kept her inside, he did not confine her and teach her to only use the litterbox.. So ANGELICA has gone wherever she wanted. This was partly the fault of the owner as there are ways to get a cat used to the box indoors and he didn’t take her to a vet either to see if anything was wrong. Sadly, now ANGELICA sits on death row because she caught the shelter cold. ANGELICA is a friendly cat and got a great AVERAGE rating. She chirped, meowed, and solicited attention and even climbed into the assessor’s lap! GET THIS POOR GIRL OUT OF HERE AND GIVE HER A CHANCE TO HAVE A HAPPY ENDING TO HER STORY!! CONTACT A RESCUE NOW TO SAVE ANGELICA.
