** SAFE 11/25/15 ** TERRIFIC TABBY WITH GREAT BEHAVIOR RATING NEEDS YOU—BE NATICK’S HERO! Sad sigh! Natick, an extremely affectionate three year old tabby found his way into his finder’s apartment via the fire escape and hid under her couch. But instead of this person trying to find Natick’s owner, she decided to dump this extremely affectionate kitty at the kill happy shelter. Natick, who is so incredibly handsome, is a purrfect gentleman and would be a great furever friend to just about anyone. He may be a little um, constipated and seems to be urinating a lot so he may need a follow up checkup at a competent vet but this is a very sweet boy who deserves a happy new life. Can you be the special purrson who opens up your heart and home to this terrific tabby? Please pull Natick online or let a rescue know if you can help. Transportation is available.
