WILLIAM – A1040392
6-22-2015 Brooklyn
***GONE 06/22/15*** SWEET WILLIAM HAS A PELVIC FRACTURE AND IS UNABLE TO USE HIS HIND LEGS BUT DESPITE THE PAIN HE IS IN HE LANDED A SUPER BEGINNER RATING – BUT THE ACC IS PLANNING TO KILL RATHER THAN TREAT – HELP GET THIS BOY HELP NOW! WILLIAM was brought into the shelter dragging his hind legs. The initial exam showed he may have a pelvic fracture and will need medical help but had a good prognosis if he received the correct care for his injuries. WILLIAM showed that he was in pain but was very sweet and not aggressive and rocked the super BEGINNER rating on his assessment even though he couldn’t really move around. WILLIAM deserves the care and love of a dedicated cat parent and if you are that person, please hurry and CONTACT A RESCUE NOW TO PULL HIM TO SAFETY. FOSTERING WILL GET HIM THE CARE HE NEEDS AND YOU CAN HELP HIM LIVE AND FIND A FUREVER HOME.
