JEMMA – A1043134
7-12-2015 Brooklyn
*** SAFE 07/12/15*** SPECIAL NEEDS KITTEN IS ONLY 6 WEEKS OLD AND HAS NEED OF SOME MEDICAL HELP – JEMMA WILL DIE AT NOON SUNDAY IF THE ACC HAS IT’S WAY! JEMMA is a very sweet little 6 week old kitten who has some congenital deformities on her hind legs making it difficult for her to walk normally. At least this is the ACC vet’s assessment of things. JEMMA really needs to be evalutated at a competent vet – she is a very young age of 6 weeks old but the ACC shows how careless they are by putting this injured little girl on the public adoption list – breaking their OWN RULES that a kitten must be 8 weeks old and 2 lbs to be adopted! I guess they figure she will be killed anyway so they didn’t care. Well JEMMA deserves a chance even if she will be special needs kitty for her whole life. She has a great appetite and does not have the dreaded cold that goes around the shelter. ALL JEMMA NEEDS IS SOMEONE TO LOVE HER AS SHE IS. CAN THAT PERSON BE YOU?? PLEASE CONTACT A RESCUE NOW TO HELP SAVE THIS TINY KITTEN AND DON’T LET THE ACC HAVE THE LAST WORD ON HER LIFE!
