URGENT THE CACC SHELTER IS FULL!!HE HAS BEEN AT THE SHELTER WAY TOO LONG!!HELP HIM FIND HIS FROVER HOME NOW!! Topper earned his name. Found on the roof of an abandoned home that had been taken over by squatters, then rescued by animal control with an assist by CPD. His story is so sad too. We found out that Topper is a collateral victim of the violence wreaking havoc on our city's streets; 3 of his 4 family members were murdered within a short period of time, and the 4th took his own life, leaving Topper to fend for himself. And that's how he ended up on the roof. But Topper doesn't look back. He doesn't wallow in misery. He thinks the shelter is a fancy doggie hotel - he's warm, he's safe and he's fed. But Topper deserves SO MUCH MORE! He is the best boy, and you can't help but smile when you are around him. Topper has perfect little triangle ears, a boxer(ish) face and the heart of our favorite breed: the Chicago special. Let's show Topper that life is meant to be lived inside a loving home, not on top of an empty house. https://youtu.be/ZUbz9t1Ti1I
