***SAFE 07/31/15*** ZAFTIG 22-POUND SPAYED CALICO CHARMER, DUMPED AS A “STRAY”, HAS A LOVING VOLUNTEER PLEA AND A NEAR-PERFECT BEHAVIOR RATING, BUT WILL DIE BECAUSE SHE SNEEZED – PLEASE GRANT MIKA A DEATH ROW PARDON!!! Voluptuous calico charmer MIKA, just 3 years old, entered the ACC’s Death Camp for Kitties as a 22-POUND SPAYED “STRAY”, where she quickly caught the eye of an ACC volunteer, who lovingly writes: “Shy at first, Mika and I became fast friends after a few cheek scratches. She is a big, sweet girl with a gentle purr, and gorgeous blue-green eyes. She would love a safe, comfy home to call her own.” Marvelous Mika aced a near-perfect AVERAGE behavior rating, but this charming girl 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 murder this BIG, BEAUTIFUL girl. Start RIGHT NOW to apply to foster or adopt calico charmer MIKA! If you can’t save MIKA yourself, please SHARE her sad story and PLEDGE for her rescue!
