My story

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

Alby is a sweet senior gentleman who is ready to spend his golden years right where he belongs — curled up next to his favorite people. This handsome boy loves nothing more than hanging out on the sofa, keeping you company during movie nights, and snoozing peacefully in bed by your side. If you’re looking for a loyal companion, Alby is your guy. Alby is very friendly and enjoys gentle head pets. He’s also quite the conversationalist! He’ll happily “chat” with you about his day, especially if mealtime is involved — because yes, this boy loves to eat. Treats, dinner time, snacks… Alby is always ready. He hasn’t lived with other animals before, so a slow and thoughtful introduction to any resident pets would be recommended. At this stage in life, Alby is looking for a comfortable, loving home where he can relax, be adored, and soak up all the cozy moments. If you have a soft spot for seniors and a warm spot on your couch, Alby would love to meet you.
