***SAFE 07/02/15*** BEGINNER-RATED “FRIENDLY, PURRING, CURIOUS” KITTEN WILL DIE DUE TO HER SNEEZE, DESPITE THE ACC’S “GOOD PROGNOSIS” – PLEASE GRANT CARROTS A DEATH ROW PARDON!!! Charming girl CARROTS, an adorable white and gray kitten just 9 months old, was cast adrift as a STRAY waif into the overcrowded sea of confusion that is the kill-happy ACC. Defying the scary shelter conditions, this little PURRING lovebug earned a rare but perfect BEGINNER rating for her GENTLE, TRUSTING RUBS and the EAGER way she BEGGED for petting! Carrots entered the ACC with corneal scarring and a mild case of conjunctivitis, but now she’s caught their dreaded kitty cold, which they “CURE” with lethal injections. Sure enough, a needle of death is set aside for her at noon tomorrow, despite their promise of a “GOOD PROGNOSIS for her recovery! Please don’t let them silence her sweet purrs forever. Start RIGHT NOW to foster or adopt charming CARROTS! If you can’t save CARROTS yourself, please SHARE her sad story and PLEDGE for her rescue!
