Alfredo
AvailableAlfredo is a senior male Persian in Cedar Rapids, IA. He is neutered, vaccinated, and house trained. While he doesn’t get along with other cats or dogs, Alfredo has a soft spot for attentive humans and needs an indoor-only environment. Due to being fully declawed in front, he sometimes bites to communicate discomfort. He also manages a prescription for allergies and benefits from regular professional grooming.
About Alfredo
Alfredo is a quirky Persian with a big personality and a fiercely independent streak. When he first arrived, he needed serious care after years of neglect, but has blossomed into a cat who knows what he likes and isn’t shy about telling you. Now around 10-11 years old and fully declawed in front, Alfredo's main way to express discomfort is with a nip—this doesn't happen often, but it means he’s a poor match with small children. Between his long coat and skin allergies, Alfredo requires regular grooming (he prefers a lion cut) and takes daily prescription meds for his allergies, though he can be stubborn about them. He does best as the only animal in the home, and he rocks a t-shirt or body suit to keep him from chewing. His ideal adopter has experience caring for altered, indoor-only pets and is ready for a cat with preferences, quirks, and style. All adoptions require a background check, home visit, and vet history review. Every animal deserves a happy ending. This one starts with you.
