Here's what the humans have to say about me:
By the time you see this sweet fellow again, his terribly matted coat will be gone. We have no idea how long Nicko was alone on the streets. Nor do we know when he was last groomed. We do know, however, that he took up residence on someone’s front porch a few weeks ago. Try as they might, they could not catch him, so they asked a fellow rescuer for assistance. Now, he’s safe with us and about to have a complete makeover! Nicko is 3 years old and weighs 10 pounds. He is also neutered, microchipped, and current on his vaccines. In no time, his sweet, loving, outgoing personality appeared, and he settled right into life with us. Now, he’s waiting for the lucky family who will take him home forevermore. Might that be you?
