Adoption information
About Andrew-Alfred
Andrew-Alfred is a male Domestic Short Hair available for adoption in Wyndham Vale (Melbourne, Victoria).
Andrew-Alfred is a young cat with a huge personality and an even bigger heart.
He's friendly with everyone he meets, loves to be picked up and cuddled, and is always the first to invite you into a game.
He's full of fun and full of affection, and he's happiest when he's sharing both with you.
A little about Andrew-Alfred:
🐾 Loves a cardboard box, and a paper shopping bag even more
🐾 Adores watching the fish tank and could happily supervise it all evening
🐾 Big fan of climbing to the highest point in the room
🐾 Loves curling up for a nap in unexpected places, from the bathroom sink to the laundry
🐾 Lights up when there's a new person to meet or play with
Andrew-Alfred's evenings follow a happy little routine. First stop is the fish tank, where he settles in to watch the fish and play along through the glass.
Then the zoomies arrive: a burst of racing, climbing and pouncing that fills the house with energy.
Once he's run it all out, he comes looking for a cuddle before heading off to sleep.
He's an affectionate, hands-on kind of cat. He rubs against your legs, starts games of his own and is always happy to be scooped up for a cuddle.
New people are simply new friends to Andrew-Alfred. He comes straight out to say hello and is happy to play with anyone who's keen.
With other cats, he's all gentleness. He greets newcomers with a friendly rub and has a special way of putting nervous cats at ease.
Being on the smaller side, he'll feel most at home around calm, kind cats, or with his people all to himself.
Andrew-Alfred would flourish in an indoor home with plenty of play, company and cuddles on offer. A household without dogs will suit him best.
He'll suit a guardian who loves an interactive, sociable cat and enjoys joining in the fun. An apartment or a house both work well, as long as there's something to climb.
Plenty of cardboard, a cat tree to scale and a window with a view will give his curious mind lots to do.
Picture coming home to find him curled up in the bathroom sink, blinking up at you as if it's the most natural bed in the world.
Or an evening on the couch after his zoomies, when he climbs into your arms for one last cuddle before bed.
Andrew-Alfred is a bright, loving young cat who makes friends wherever he goes, and he's ready to bring that joy to a home of his own.

Adoption details
When enquiring about a pet listed with Home2Home, your enquiry goes directly to the pet’s guardian—the person who knows them best!
From here, the guardian will be in touch to learn more about you and chat with you about their pet. It’s a great opportunity for you to ask any questions you may have about the pet, including its likes and dislikes, needs, and how it may fit into your lifestyle and family.
If your home and lifestyle match the pet's needs, the next step will be arranging a meet-and-greet to make sure everyone is happy to proceed with a formal adoption.
Following the adoption, change of ownership paperwork will be completed, and proof of vaccination, microchipping, and desexing (if applicable, as indicated on the listing) will be provided.
All pets adopted through Home2Home will require an adoption contract to be signed and an adoption fee to be paid. The pet’s guardian will complete the adoption contract with you and provide a link to PetRescue’s secure payment portal for completing the adoption fee payment.
Home2Home currently operates a ‘pay what you choose’ system for cat adoption fees. This means that adopters will be able to choose an adoption fee amount that is suitable for them. All adoption fees are used to support PetRescue's life-saving programs, including Home2Home.
