BLANCA – A1031804

***SAFE*** “VERY FRIENDLY” PURRING SNOW-WHITE OLDER GIRL WITH AN AWESOME BEHAVIOR RATING WAS DUMPED FOR NEW BABY – PLEASE GRANT BLANCA A DEATH ROW PARDON!!! Gorgeous white 8-year-old sweetheart BLANCA was dumped into the kill-happy ACC due to “NEW BABY”, but didn’t her old owners REALIZE that babies and cats have been HAPPILY COEXISTING for THOUSANDS of years? Even the stingy ACC pronounced her to be “VERY FRIENDLY” and granted her a near-perfect AVERAGE behavior rating for her PURRS . At home, lovely lady Blanca was simply a DREAM to own: “Loves to play, Enjoys Petting, Loves to cuddle & be picked up”, and did I mention that Blanca has perfect litter box and scratching post manners? The ACC says that she suffers from stomatitis, but her prognosis is said to be FAIR to GOOD with dental treatment! Yet the ACC will SILENCE HER PURRS FOREVER at noon tomorrow. Please be Blanca’s voice tonight. She deserves a loving forever home just as much as every other cat on this dreadful list. Start RIGHT NOW to apply to foster or adopt adorable older snow-white beauty BLANCA! If you can’t save BLANCA yourself, please SHARE her sad story and PLEDGE for her rescue!
