Here’s another adoptable pet of the week from the Brooklyn Animal Rescource Coalition (BARC) shelter in Williamsburg.
This is Hooper, who originally came to BARC in Williamsburg from a life on the streets of Bushwick. He had survived with two broken bones his leg, which was set and healed while he’s been there. Do note the heart shape on his nose. Here’s a bit about him:
Hooper is a kitten that was trapped in a Trap-Neuter-Return project in Bushwick, Brooklyn by the kind-hearted jenblossom. Somehow he survived for weeks in the urban jungle with two broken bones in his leg, climbing fences and running through backyards…Hooper is ready for adoption and would love to get started on his next life in the safety and comfort of some terrific cat person’s home! The leg has healed beautifully and he’s taken charge of his rehab therapy by running around and playing like a normal kitten. Hooper and the BARC Cat Loft cats (well, most of them anyway!) love to have visitors, so come by Tuesday-Saturday from Noon to 5.
