About Alonzo

Meet Alonzo, a charming young cat fondly known as "Mr Steal Your Girl" by his foster. This affectionate feline thrives on a routine that includes a hearty breakfast followed by playful laser sessions and cozy naps nearby. If you’re home, expect him to gaze at you with his winky eyes, asking for a bit of playtime, before returning to his snooze. In the evenings, he loves to cuddle, often leading you to the couch or bed for some snuggles. Alonzo is quite the conversationalist; he’ll engage in dialogue as long as you talk or meow back. When he’s in the mood for affection, he gives his signature “hugs” by pressing his body against you. True to his “cow” cat reputation, he has a robust appetite and isn’t picky when it comes to food. Rescued in Brownsville, Alonzo came to us after appearing scared with a local colony. He would thrive in a calm household with older children and other cats who can play with him periodically. While he’s a bit shy around faces, he enjoys gentle pets from your arms, legs, and hands. This silly and sweet boy is about 2 years old, neutered, vaccinated, and house trained.
