Handsome two-year-old lovebug TIGERDOBEY, a stunning black tabby and white boy, was BETRAYED by his old owners, who dumped him into the ACC’s Death Camp for Kitties due to NEW BABY. Didn’t they realize that babies and cats have HAPPILY CO-EXISTED for THOUSANDS of years?!? At home, Tigerdobey was PURRFECT: “Tiger Dobey is a little shy for a few minutes but then will seek attention. The cat has lived with a one and a half year old child. and is very relaxed and affectionate. Tiger is very friendly, affectionate and playful. He is mellow and talkative. He has a medium activity level. Owners favorite things about Tiger are that he is LOVING. Tiger’s favorite activities are to play. When at home Tiger follows you around. He enjoys playing with all kinds of toys, balls, string, laser.” Tigerdobey earned a rare-but-perfect behavior rating of AVERAGE for his MEOWS and HEADBUTTS, but this adorable young boy will DIE at noon tomorrow, an INNOCENT VICTIM of the notorious ACC kitty cold and a badly broken shelter system. Please don’t let them silence his purrs forever! Start RIGHT NOW to apply to foster or adopt tabby lovebug TIGERDOBEY!
