***SAFE 07/19/15*** BEGINNER-RATED PURRING, HEADBUTTING SENIOR CHARMER LOVES CATS AND DOGS AND HAS A LOVING VOLUNTEER PLEA, BUT WILL NOW DIE BECAUSE HE SNEEZED – PLEASE GRANT KIBBY A DEATH ROW PARDON!!! Exquisitely handsome 11-year-old senior gentleman KIBBY was dumped into the kill-happy ACC (along with his best fur-friend KATIE, already KILLED) when their old owner MOVED to new cat-free digs. A volunteer quickly spotted lovebug Kibby and lovingly writes: “Kibby is a striking and friendly tabby kitty — he just loves to be petted and just loves attention! I was surprised to see that he was 11 years old, or rather, 11 years young, because he was just so eager and energetic! He was sleeping quite soundly but woke up when I peered in and he was immediately bright eyed and bushy tailed and ready for some petting! He was so happy to have some attention that he purred and head butted and walked around in circles. He would make a perfect addition to any household — according to his notes, he gets along with children, cats, and dogs!! He is definitely one of the more relaxed and easy going kitties I’ve met! Come and make Kibby a part of your family today!” But poor Kibby (who is ALREADY NEUTERED and earned a rare but perfect BEGINNER behavior rating) will DIE at noon tomorrow, an INNOCENT VICTIM of the notorious ACC kitty cold and a badly broken shelter system. Please don’t let them silence his purrs forever! Start RIGHT NOW to apply to foster or adopt adorable senior charmer KIBBY! If you can’t save KIBBY yourself, please SHARE his sad story and PLEDGE for his rescue!
