***SAFE 06/23/15*** DREAMSICLE CREAMSICLE NEEDS YOU—BE KISSIMME’S RESCUE ANGEL! A volunteer writes, “Hello! My name is Kissimme….not that I need to introduce myself – I’m sure you recognize me. I’m quite famous! I’ve played roles in Hollywood such as Puss in Boots and Garfield, among others. I’ve decided to take a break from my busy Hollywood lifestyle and settle down in New York. I love to play and snuggle, and I’m looking to adopt a best friend – or an entire family!” Poor Kissimmee! He was lucky enough to make it out of the shelter a couple of months ago only to be returned due to “pet health.” Kissimme, just 1.4 mo, has been diagnosed with a heart murmur which is actually a condition that cats can live with for many, many years without even noticing any symptoms. In fact, if you look at his former owner’s reports—there are no indications that Kissimme was ill at all. Instead, he has glowing reports—gets along with other cats, kids and is gentle with everyone.He aced hi behavior eval with an awesome pawesome average rating. The ACC didn’t even bother to do a new medical exam—instead just fast tracked him to the at-risk list. Let’s do everything we can to move this great guy to safe haven. Please reserve him online or contact a NH rescue for help. Won’t you please be this dreamsicle creamsicle’s rescue angel?
