GIZMO – A1054291
Safe 10-29-2015 Manhattan Rescue: All Sentient Beings Please honor your pledges: http://animalloversnetwork.org/
**SAFE 10/29/15** BEGINNER-rated GIZMO is a handsome young dude who inspired this loving volunteer comment: “A volunteer writes: Gizmo is friendly and energetic. According to his previous owner, he loves playing with children, but might do better with older kids who can understand when kitty has had enough playtime. He is very sweet and affectionate, loves attention but can also be independent. He is a very well rounded package, and will do well in many different environments. Come see if he’s the one you’ve been looking for.” Unfortunately, his time is up for anyone who wants to “come and see if he’s the one,” since the next person who takes him out of his cage, is liable to carry him to the euth room. Please don’t let this excellent boy be lost to a broken shelter system! Advocate widely for GIZMO tonight!
