**SAFE – 05/04/15** Avocado is a handsome, friendly guy who is in dire straits tonight. Brought into the shelter as a stray, this cat earned great notes from the ACC staff: “Avocado is a very sweet and affectionate stray that liked to be pet. Avocado went into the kennel and was collared with ease. The Cat allowed handling and rubbed up against staff wanting to be pet. Avocado was gentle and would come to the front of the kennel meowing when anyone walked by.” He has an AVERAGE rating and needs a foster or adopter to step up for him, tonight!
