SHERA – A1053408
Gone 10-6-2015 Brooklyn
****GONE 10/06/15**** Five year old Shera is every inch a lady according to her former owner. She is well socialized with people, children and with cats. Shera is affectionate, talkative, playful…a complete doll…at home. Unfortunately, Shera’s whole life imploded when she was surrendered along with her housemates. She does not like the shelter environment and, as a result, did not do well on her SAFER. She is rated New Hope Only and will need a rescue to help her find a way out. Please help this pretty calico find that way out by advocating.
