About Alfie

Meet Alfie, a charming kitten with soft fur and unique striped markings. His large white paws suggest he’ll grow into quite a hefty cat! Alfie enjoys entertaining himself with ping-pong balls, spring toys, and furry mice. He's often found helping his foster mom retrieve toys he's knocked under furniture, always eager to play again. Although he’s affectionately nicknamed the "Cowardly Lion," he just needs a quiet home with a patient family to help him feel safe. Once he builds trust, his gentle personality emerges. The way to Alfie's heart is through daily Churu treats; they bring out his delightful purr and reveal the affectionate kitten he truly is. He may not leap into your arms right away, but earning his trust will be a rewarding journey for the special person willing to invest time in him. Alfie is neutered, microchipped, and fully vaccinated, including rabies. He's also litter box trained and ready for a forever home. His estimated birth date is April 4, 2026. Let's make Alfie's next chapter a happy one!
