FALAFEL – A1055154
Safe 11-8-2015 Staten Island
SAFE 11/8/15 A volunteer writes: Falafel is a sweet boy who enjoys being petted, and will head butt in return. However, he doesn’t like to have his paws touched, but he will make the first move, and reach his paw out to you. This gray and white boy would do well in the forever home of average cat parents (those with some experience with cats). Could that home be yours?
