***SAFE 08/07/15*** MISSISSIPPI is a sweet 4 year old that was surrendered to ACC because of both a ‘move’ and allergies. She’s a sweet and delightful ittle girl, and did very well with her assessment, gentle and meowing to her assessor, as though to say ‘get me out of here!’ MISSISSIPPI needs you tonight-not just because the ACC gave her a name that most likely wasn’t hers-but because she’s facing death tomorrow without rescue. She’s playful, sweet, uses the box with no problem, and would do very well with people who would understand she’s a lifetime cat, a forever cat. This is a hard time of year for cats to get out of ACC alive-please let this precious girl get out alive and well-offer to foster her or scoop her up and hear her purr light up your life. SAVE MISSISSIPPI NOW!
