Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Hey guys – I’m Alec. My siblings, Jem, Tessa, Izzy, and I were abandoned when were very young. Lucky for us, some nice people came along, scooped us up, and took us inside where we belong! Since then we’ve been living it up indoors and growing big and strong. Our foster family says that now we’re ready to find our very own forever homes. I hear that forever homes are the coolest places in the world!
I’ve got some pretty strict requirements for my forever home. I love to play, so I am going to need lots of toys. I will definitely need some balls and some of those funny lookin’ mice to swat and chase around. And I really like to play with my special humans, so I’ll need some of those wand toys with strings and feathers on the end. Oh, and a cat tree or some places for me to climb. I love to be way up high where I can look out over the house and make sure that everything is in order. But my most important requirement is a family who will give me lots of love and attention and let me snuggle whenever I want.
I consider myself a pretty laid back guy, so I think I will do well in any kind of home. You provide the toys, and I’ll bring the snuggles!
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.
