SAM – A1055138
Safe 11-3-2015 Brooklyn
**SAFE 11/03/15** BEGINNER-rated SAM is a gorgeous boy who appears on the first swollen euth list all week–and of course, the ACC released that huge list on Halloween! It’s almost as if they want to obliterate any chance these cats might have, of being saved, by purposefully listing them on a night when a lot of people are potentially not doing their normal routine. SAM is probably someone’s lost pet, but if a FOSTER or ADOPTER is not found tonight, he will be one more dead cat in an ACC freezer, tomorrow.
