Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Hi. I’m Axl, named after the lead singer of Guns & Roses. That’s because I’m pretty much the leader of my litter. When we arrived at our foster house, I was the first out of the carrier, ready to see my new digs!
Don’t tell my brothers (I have 4 of them!), but I’m definitely the most handsome. I know this because everyone says so, and once I was so startled by my good looks when I caught a glimpse of myself in a mirror that I jumped back several feet. That’s the story I’m sticking to at least!
I’m a very cool, calm and collected little guy. Not much rattles me (except my good looks, of course). I like to play and wrestle with my brothers, but I’m just as happy lounging in a pool of sunlight alone or spending time next to my foster parents soaking up the love. I can be somewhat independent at times, for instance, while my brothers all pile together to sleep, I often find my own space to nap. I’m not a traditional lap cat, but when I’m ready, I seek out attention.
I’m an all-around happy go lucky kind of kitten. I’ve never met a dog or child, but I think I’d be ok with either of them if given some time to adjust. I’m hoping to find a forever home that will love my devilish good looks and wonderfully calm personality!
I will be ready for my forever home at the end of June.
The best way to ensure you have a good chance of adopting me is to fill out an online application at www.henricohumane.org/adopt/application-for-cats/. We take applications on a first come, first served basis, so applying quickly is always recommended!
Our adoption events are every Saturday, excluding holidays, at the Petco next to Trader Joe's in Short Pump from 11:00 to 3:00 (11331 West Broad Street, Glen Allen, VA). To find out if I will be attending this week's adoption event, please email cats@henricohumane.org.
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 or visit us at our adoption stand.
