FLUTTER SHY – A1032939
4-17-2015 Staten Island
SAFE 4/14/15 Beautiful 1-year old FLUTTER SHY needs your love! This beauty is petite at 5.1 pounds and was brought to NYC animal control by her former owner who surrendered her due to personal problems. She is very stressed and scared in the shelter environment and needs the patience and love she deserves. Judging by her intake notes, she is not deserving of the “New Hope Only” rating she has received! Her previous owner states that she is playful and gentle, but is fearful of children and other animals, so she may do best in a quiet home where she can be the center of attention. Apply to adopt or foster FLUTTER SHY immediately as she does not have much time left! If you cannot adopt, please share her picture and story in the hopes that someone can save her life- she deserves better than to be dumped by humans at a noisy and crowded shelter where she cannot get the affection or attention she needs! PLEASE help FLUTTER SHY to love and trust again!
