PRIMO – A1054436
Safe 10-17-2015 Brooklyn Rescue: Staten Island Hope Please honor your pledges: http://www.statenislandhoperescue.org/
***SAFE 10/17/15*** PRIMO was brought into the CARE CENTER as a STRAY! His sleek, black coat and big eyes are the first thing to greet you and he’s just a baby at 1 year old. He’s displaying fearful behavior during assessment but was interacted with, in a limited way. He’s best suited for now, to a new owner without children. He may be intimidated by them and its best to let him get used to NEW surroundings and then he should be just fine! Offer to FOSTER or ADOPT PRIMO and let him be the kind of sweet guy he’s always been and you’ll be the BETTER for saving him!
