Parker was abandoned in Washington Square Park in 2023, left alone in a carrier with a note. Thankfully, he wasn’t along for long—a Good Samaritan found Parker and took him to Animal Haven. Lucky for this guy, it was only a few weeks before Parker was adopted!

His adopters recently reached out with these adorable photos and an update: “My roommates and I adopted Christopher from Animal Haven in June of 2023. We graduated college this May, and I’ve been taking care of him since. He’s been doing great! Everyone who meets him loves him (understandably).”
