***SAFE 09/13/15*** GENTLEMAN JOE IS HOPING TO FIND A NEW BEST FRIEND TONIGHT- OR THE ACC WILL KILL HIM FOR HAVING A COLD! JOE was sady dumped for the all too common “personal problems” excuse. JOE had lived with his owner for 9 long years and never had a scratch post, toys or another kitty to play with. How sad. Now this poor cat is on death row for no reason of his own, but because his owner blamed his problems on the cat. JOE is a very handsome cat who got an AVERAGE rating for being friendly, head butting and allowing all petting on his assessment. WON’T YOU GIVE JOE A CHANCE TO LIVE AND HAVE A HAPPY ENDING TONIGHT? CONTACT A RESCUE NOW TO SAVE HIS LIFE!

09/05/2015 WEB MEMO
A volunteer writes: Joe is a very handsome and distinguished gentleman, who is wondering why he isn’t at home now. He is a little shy, but very sweet when you give him his space until he is comfortable with you. He’s got plenty of time to give you his love and gratitude for taking him home again. I really enjoyed meeting him, I think you will too.
