TOMMY – A0965644
4-19-2015 Brooklyn
SAFE 04/19/15 TOMMY’s assessor states: ‘attention seeking: allows all handling!’ TOMMY where did you come from-for TOMMY is a bit of a puzzle. He hails from an area near Crown Heights-and this cat tested positive for a MICROCHIP!!!!! Maybe ACC attempted contact of previous owners-or maybe not. In any case, TOMMY is listed as about 9 years of age, and he’s a gentle guy. This could be someone’s lost cat, this could be a cat that was dumped, we can’t know. But what we do knos is that TOMMY is a cat not used to being in a ‘shelter’ like ACC-and he is gentle, and bewildered. What we also know is that ACC plan on ending this gentleman’s life tomorrow-and that simply isn’t fair-for TOMMY is a gentle soul who has many good years ahead of him. Please-step up for this good boy-don’t let him be killed. A guy like TOMMY will be so appreciative of you! Please contact a rescue and offer to foster dear TOMMY!!!! Or scoop him up and carry him home-so he will never be lost or lonely again! SAVE TOMMY TONIGHT! HE HASN’T ANOTHER EVENING To SPARE!
