DESTIEL – A1031131
4-2-2015
SAFE*** JUST A YEAR OLD, BROUGHT INTO ACC IN A ‘PLASTIC BIN’ This not even out of kittenhood DESTIEL will be ‘put to sleep’ tomorrow for ‘house soil’. That means, ladies and gents, that this boy wasn’t using the litterbox. But instead of trying to work to find why (not neutered, maybe the litter wasn’t clean enough or maybe it was a litter that was hard on his paws) he’s put into a plastic bin and dumped at ACC. Despite this, DESTIEL is a nice guy-he’s been tolerant of ACC sticking a plastic hand in his face, ‘chirping’ every time he was petted, and is easy to handle and enjoyed being petted. Don’t let this good little guy die because some jerky ex ‘owners’ who were ignorant decided that DESTIEL’S litter box problem wasn’t theirs but his….cats are fastidious and only ‘house soil’ to tell you something is out of sorts. Scoop up this friendly guy with the lovely markings, foster him, let a vet check him out (cats sometimes don’t use a litterbox if they have a bladder infection….give him a litter box or two with some Dr. Eisleys’ in it, and watch how quick this boy is using the litterbox!!! But don’t let the ACC kill this pleasant little chap!!! SAVE DESTIEL NOW!!! He doesn’t have another night to spare!!!
