With his glossy black coat and those bright, wide eyes, Alfredo cuts a dashing figure indeed! Alfredo is a sassy gentleman with some particular personality quirks, but is a serious BFF material for the right adopter! He LOVES his favorite people, Churu and other special treats, catnip, lounging in a sunny spot and playing with wand toys. His favorite thing in the entire world is for a person to just hold out their hand so he can pet himself - and after he's finished, you might end up with Alfredo snuggled on your lap! Alfredo does have some quirks - He's not a fan of other cats generally and can be a bully to others. He does reside comfortably at the rescue with other felines and can peacefully coexist with calmer, laid back cats. Like people, Alfredo picks and choses his friends. Alfredo can also get quickly overstimulated and nippy when being pet - hence the let him do the work, for the exact amount of pets he wants at any given time. Aside from his "quirks" Alfredo is 100% best friend material and adores his chosen people. He is an intelligent, social cat and would be a wonderful addition to an adult-only home without other pets or a home with a calmer, introverted cat who keeps to themselves and doesn't mind sharing. Alfredo previously lived with an older, small breed feline-savvy dog. Alfredo’s birthday is in June 2015.
In hopes of bringing awareness to the many deserving cats searching for homes, volunteers at Animal Advocates have sponsored Alfredo and covered his adoption fees.
All cats are up-to-date on age/weight appropriate vaccines, exams, FIV/FeLV tested (negative), flea treated, dewormed, spayed/neutered and microchipped. If not completed at the time of adoption, any remaining initial vetting will be covered by the rescue.
