Prince has a high activity level, best described as playful, friendly & independent. Prince enjoys getting baths. He loves water and will stay in a bath tub until his bath is done. He enjoys playing with balls, strings & stuffed toys. Occasionally owner will crumple up aluminum foil paper into a ball & Prince will play fetch. When owner is home he will follow owner around & be in the same e room. Prince plays gently with his owner.” During intake, “Prince appeared to be calm and curious of his environment. He allowed counselor to pet him & allowed all handling”, but now his FEAR has taken over. Prince was PUNISHED with New Hope Only and fast-tracked to the noon kill list for tomorrow, despite the fact that poor Prince is PERFECTLY HEALTHY! Please save this darling tuxie kitten lovebug!
