JAKE – A1040175
6-30-2015 Staten Island
***SAFE 06/30/15*** So, who thinks moving is a good reason to dump an animal? NOT US!!! Meet Jake, a 4 year old guy that was dumped with his housemates when their family moved and decided Jake and his crew didn’t fit into their new life. So what do they do? They dump they at a High Kill Shelter, knowing full well Jake and his crew might now very well make it out alive. That’s love for you. Jake is said to be a friendly cat that has been brought up with kids, he sometimes likes to keep to himself. But when in the mood, Jake LOVES to dole out love and kisses to the ones he loves. Jake likes to be brushed and is easy and laid back, no real issues to speak of here. It’s sad that a cat like Jake might lose his life tomorrow because he is an ordinary cat, no issues, no real sob story, nothing. You can change all that, share him for his new forever home and he will get to live out his life to a normal, rope senior. But the clock is ticking and time waits for no one.
