***SAFE 09/13/15*** VERY FRIENDLY” PURRING, KNEADING YOUNG CHARMER, ABANDONED BY HIS OLD OWNER, HAS A NEAR-PERFECT BEHAVIOR RATING, BUT WILL DIE BECAUSE HE SNEEZED – PLEASE GRANT VITO A DEATH ROW PARDON!!! Adorable four-year-old gray and white boy VITO arrived at the ACC’s Death Camp for Kittens as a STRAY fellow after his old owner had moved and ABANDONED poor Vito! This sweet, lively guy charmed the ACC into proclaiming him a “VERY FRIENDLY” kitty; Vito PURRED, KNEADED, and RUBBED his way to a near-perfect behavior rating. What’s not to love? But Vito will DIE at noon tomorrow, an INNOCENT VICTIM of the notorious ACC kitty cold and a badly broken shelter system. Please don’t let the ACC murder this EXCELLENT young lad! Start RIGHT NOW to apply to foster or adopt lover-boy VITO! If you can’t save VITO yourself, please SHARE his sad story and PLEDGE for his rescue!
