BUSHIDO – A1048254
Safe 9-3-2015 Brooklyn
***SAFE 09/03/15***FRIENDLY AND EXOTIC LOOKING BUSHIDO came in to ACC as a ‘tipped cat’ from Mother Gaston Blvd, Brooklyn 1212′. He’s not a ‘feral’ he’s quite friendly but as such, can’t be put back out and no ‘caretaker’ is claiming him or recognizing him. BUSHIDO has fans at ACC-a VOLUNTEER WRITES THIS ABOUT THIS HANDSOME GUY: ‘ “There is no greater solitude than that of the samurai, unless it is that of the tiger in the jungle … perhaps.” I don’t know how little Bushido got his name, but he possesses all the composure, loyalty, and self-discipline you’d expect from a warrior hero straight out of a Kurosawa movie. So calm and refined, this little guy – scarcely ever a meow, even when food appears, and you have to bend down and listen close to hear his appreciative purring. He doesn’t lose his cool when he’s picked up and held, and when you pet him he repays you generously (another warrior virtue) with gentle head butts. His fur is the darkest chestnut brown, almost black, except for a swatch of pure white he keeps tucked away under his belt like a ninja throwing star. Easy to overlook, he’s equally hard to forget once you spend some time with him. Are you prepared to embrace the way of the samurai?’ BUSHIDO needs you tonight-he’s obviously someone’s pet and probably lost his way or was left behind…this is a very exotic looking sweet boy with a gentle disposition, and noble heart!!! Please don’t let him be killed!!!!
