My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Hi there, my name is Cornelius. I’ve had a rough go of it lately. I thought I had a forever home, but one day, completely out of the blue, my family abandoned me. Lucky for me, a nice family in my apartment complex started taking care of me when they realized I was all alone. Now I’m ready to find a new forever home!

My foster mom calls me an adventurer. After my time outside, nothing scares me anymore. I love to explore and climb. My foster mom has indoor trees just for cats! Even though I’m not technically a kitten anymore, I am still full of energy and lots of fun. I love to play with toys. My absolute favorites are the wand toys with strings and feathers on the end. I could chase them all day!

Playing really is great, but I also love people and attention and snuggles! When I’m tired or need some love, I just curl up in my foster mom’s lap and beg for pets. I would do great in any type of home, especially if there are toys for me to play with and people who will give me lots of love and never leave me again.

If you'd like to meet me, please email cats@henricohumane.org to setup a visit. Don't forget to tell them you want to meet Cornelius!

If you're not sure which cat you're interested in or are just beginning to search for a companion, our adoption coordinators can help! Just fill out a short questionnaire at: www.henricohumane.org/adopt/cat-adoption-questionnaire/ that will help us match you with our wonderful cats then visit us at our Adoption Stand at West Broad Petco (next to Trader Joe's) every Saturday from 11:00 to 3:00.
