Adopt Al

Mixed Breed Cat · Male · Adult · 5 years

Al came into our care as a very scared stray who was covered in fleas. We have no idea what Al has experienced and he was quite rightly very worried by people and would struggle to engage with us here at The Bristol Animal Rescue Centre but thanks to our very successful foster scheme we were able to place this special cat with a foster carer where he is starting to accept affection on his own terms. Al is in need of a calm patient home where he can continue to come out of his shell. Initially he can be quite nervous and fearful of touch but with the right handling and an understanding of cat body language he quickly comes out of his shell. He loves having zoomies and can be quite clumsy, sometimes knocking things over that are in his way!! He loves his toys, catnip and his treat ball. The most important thing to Al is food – He’s not picky. He loves having head scratches but it has to be on his terms as he can sometimes still be a little fearful of handling. He’s a big softie once resettled in a home and has an even bigger character. Currently he’s in a foster home and is always close to his foster carer,keeping an eye on what they’re up to and wanting to be involved in everything they’re doing. He’s still not keen on the hoover (who isn’t?) and will run and hide at the moment if someone comes to the front door, but is gaining confidence each day! Please note that should you be invited to meet and adopt Al, you will be meeting him in his cat carrier, we will be unable to let him out as he will find that too stressful, his wonderful foster carer is currently doing carrier training with him and we will also provide you with tips on the day too so please do judge this wonderful cat by this profile and the gorgeous photos of him in his foster home.
