This confident, outgoing cat is searching for a place to call home.
Gucci's foster family notes that he is very social with new people, not super interested in toys, OK with dogs, and loves to explore and perch up on high places. He always uses his litterbox and his favourite treats are temptations.
Gucci has a few quirks. He is a "pet me with your eyes" type of cat who can get very over-stimulated when being pet. Keeping petting sessions short are key to a good friendship with Gucci. He doesn't enjoy being touched on his legs, back end, belly or tail. He would do best in an adult-only home where his boundaries will be respected.
Gucci is currently part of the Cattitude Cat program which means his adoption fee is by donation. This cat would love to join an adult household where he can thrive on his own terms. Primary Color: Brown Tabby Weight: 5.4 Age: 1yrs 0mths 3wks

Before you Adopt
Pet adoption is a big commitment. We encourage you to spend considerable time thinking about and researching the type of pet most suitable to your family. Most breeds have their own characteristic traits and specific needs which need to be considered. Remember that some animals have lifespans of 20 years or more.
Prospective adopters will meet the following requirements:
- You must be at least 18 years old.
- You must have two pieces of identification, with at least one showing your current address and a picture.
- ALL FAMILY MEMBERS, sometimes including family pets, must be present during the adoption process.
- If you already have a dog and are considering adopting another one, you MUST be prepared to bring your current family dog to the interview. This will help you to determine if all family members and existing pets will get along with the new pet.
- If you live in rental accommodations, please confirm that your landlord allows the type of pet you are considering, and that you have paid your pet deposit before you adopt. There are NO REFUNDS OR EXCHANGES if the building owner does not accept the animal. In addition, you will have to pay all regular surrender fees if you need to return the animal to the Edmonton Humane Society.
If you are looking to adopt a dog or puppy please note:
Some of the dogs on our web site have recommendations on the age of younger family members. These restrictions are placed out of the concern of the dogs as well as in consideration of families.
Remember that new animals arrive every day. You may have to return to the shelter a number of times before you find a good match. It is better to wait and come back again than it is to take home an animal who does not suit your lifestyle
