***SAFE 4/23/15***SUPER SWEET AND AFFECTIONATE PANTHER NEEDS NEW FRIEND! Honk is a handsome five year old neutered boy who desperately needs us to advocate for him tonight. His finder dumped him at the shelter back on 4/11 even though it was obvious that this precious pet, a purrfect gentleman, was definitely once somebody’s beloved companion. Honk is too gentle and good around kids (the finder kept Honk overnight and said he got along fine with a year old) and even got along with the family dog. But instead of trying to find Honk’s owner, the finder gave him up to the ACC where he caught the curable kitty cold–and is now slated to become another sad stat. Honk aced his behavior eval with an awesome average rating and is a precious purring machine who tolerates all petting and handling. Let’s do everything we can to move this great guy to safe haven. Won’t you be THE somebody in “somebody do something?”Put a little love in your heart with handsome Honk!!!
