Alexis Domestic Short Hair & Tabby Mix Sayreville, NJ

ADOPT ALEXIS our SHY girl who likes other cats. More details below.

**During the current health situation**

If you are interested in ADOPTING from the EDISON ANIMAL SHELTER, please email the shelter manager, Becky Snyder at rsnyder@edisonnj.org and she will send you an application to fill out and discuss potentially setting up a meeting. The subject of the email should be "Adoption - Pet's Name". Thank you. Be safe and stay healthy.

ADOPT ME! Meet Alexis. She is a shy 4-month-old kitty who loves other cats. We do suggest that she go to a cat-experienced adopter who is willing to work with her to help her come out of her shell. Please do not inquire if you are looking for an instant lap cat or a cat that is good with small children. Children will scare her since she is such a scaredy cat.

Please do your research on kitten and cat care before you inquire. We know kittens are so cute, but here are a couple of questions to ask yourself: Check out this website.

Remember...never use your hands or feet to play with a cat or kitten....always use a toy. If you play using your hands, fingers or feet, you are actually training him/her to bite and scratch people.

Be sure to teach your kitten while young to have his/her nails trimmed, to be gently brushed and to use a scratching post...invest in a strong, sturdy one that doesn't move.

All of our kittens are not always posted on Petfinder or our Facebook page. Stop in the shelter to double check to see who is available. We don't want you to miss out on that special kitten you have been looking to adopt!

All of our shelter dogs and cats are spayed/neutered and up to date on their vaccinations prior to adoption.
