SLY – A1030782
4-6-2015
*** UNKNOWN *** Sly is an example of the very thing the ACC doesn’t admit to; the scheduled killing of adoptable cats. They have danced around this issue for years, hiding their dirty deeds behind various smoke screens of language and policy, but what it comes down to is this: Sly is young, healthy, adoptable, and has an AVERAGE rating. Despite the fact that he would be the prefect pet for someone, the ACC are going to kill him tonight because they couldn’t find him a home, and they aren’t even going to be sorry when they do. Please advocate strongly for Sly, tonight.
