MIDNIGHT – A1054728
Gone 10-21-2015 Brooklyn
*** GONE 10/21/15 *** SECOND CHANCE FOR MIDNIGHT!! MAKE IT COUNT!! MIDNIGHT IS A SPAYED SIX YEAR OLD WHO LIKES KIDS BUT NOT NECESSARILY OTHER CATS….At least the one she lived with…MIDNIGHT’S former owner said she was having personal problems and MIDNIGHT was having health issues….what better plan than to dump MIDNIGHT at the shelter and take care of both problems….MIDNIGHT is a cat that is easily stressed and many times this affects a cat’s bowel and bladder which it seems to be doing now. A visit with a competent vet and a chance to decompress are what MIDNIGHT needs right now….MIDNIGHT is also a hefty lass at 18 lbs and could use some healthier eating patterns…..BUT FOR THAT SHE NEEDS A HOME!! PLEASE FOSTER OR ADOPT THIS EBONY CHUBETTE WHO UNDERNEATH IS A LOVER AND NOT A FIGHTER!!
