♦♦TO BE KILLED 12:00PM TUESDAY 04/12/2022♦♦ "Fox needs emergency placement for medical reasons. She is a senior, emaciated cat with diarrhea, mild anemia and severe dental disease. She needs further blood work, an abdominal ultrasound and monitoring in a home to adequately treat her gastrointestinal disease. She is improving on a hypoallergenic diet in the shelter." *** WATCH MY VIDEO ~ SAVE MY LIFE *** https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=egzscfRWjVQ *** A $250 stipend will be offered to the New Hope partner that pulls Fox 140063. Please note that in order to qualify for the stipend, she cannot go to a boarding facility. *** The sweetest girl!! Found outside, but loves people so much! Purr machine, struggling with diarrhea, dental disease, anemia, and elevated liver values Geriatric lady FULL of love and needs your help! It's hard to get pictures of this senior lady because she just loves running up for pets! Sweet Sweet lady that is a purr machine! Fox was brought in as a stray and shows love to everyone who comes to see her, please help give this baby a place to call home. What my friends at ACC say about me: * My history is a mystery and my friends here do not know much about me yet! * It is unknown if I have ever lived with other animals or children. * I am a sweet, social, older gal, looking for the perfect forever home! * Cheek and chin scratches make me so happy! * My purr motor is always running! * I am a cat that is in need of a lap! I can't wait to be your new lap cat. A volunteer writes: "Another word for LoveBug is Fox! Fox is a foxy lady, a girly girl, a spunky senior who has won the heart of everybody around her at the Manhattan Care Center! She is tiny, cute as a button and loves attention and action. Fox is always ready to jump in someone's arms and be cradled like a baby. She is so friendly and active, head bunts purrs loudly and drops onto her side for caresses. She has tried more than once to escape her kennel, eager to explore her surroundings. She is a real doll and does not mind being outfitted with jewelry." Fox is 15 and we all know that with age, so often, come various medical issues. She needs a foster, not only attuned to the care of senior pets but also loving them dearly. Fox is already dreaming of her new home, hoping to live, enjoy, love, and be loved. MANHATTAN ACC ADOPTABLE FOX 140063: 15 Years | Stray| Female | 4 lbs.
