My story

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

Gorgeous, Sweet, Shy

Meet Alpha!

This handsome gray tabby is a softhearted soul learning to enjoy the cozy comforts of home life. After coming from a tough start, he’s discovering how nice it feels to be loved — and he’s proving to be a quiet sweetheart with an affectionate streak.

Alpha likes to spend time in the same room as his person, where he can keep a calm, watchful eye on things. Once he feels comfortable, he’ll crawl into your lap, knead his biscuits, and melt right in for snuggles. He’s a tidy boy with great litter box manners, loves his scratching post, and has a particular fondness for wet food and Churu treats.

Because he’s a gentle, cautious kitty still finding his confidence, Alpha would thrive as the only cat in a calm, patient home where he can blossom at his own pace. If you’re looking for a quiet companion who shows his love in soft, sweet ways, Alpha may be your perfect match.

All APA! cats are fully vetted, spayed or neutered, and have updated vaccines and a microchip. Lifetime support is offered by our Cat Behavior Team.

For further information or to meet Alpha, please email adopt@austinpetsalive.org.
