Give a warm welcome to the newest Adoptable Pet of the Week, Alex! This 5-year-old girl loves bird watching and is looking for a forever home.
Alex is currently available for adoption through Homeward Trails Animal Rescue.
Her foster family had a few things to say about Alex:
Cuddle aficionado? Check! Champion bird watcher? Check! Cutest big rabbit ears this side of the Mississippi? Check! Alex is #1 on every count.
Alex has stolen her foster family’s hearts with her sweet meows, gorgeous face and loving demeanor. She loves her people more than anything and is happy to spend her days hanging out in her bed by your desk while you work from home. Other hobbies include watching Cat TV on YouTube, mealtimes (and snack-times), and playing with her wand toy. She is known to fall asleep to her foster mom singing to her at night before bedtime.
At 5 years old, Alex knows what she is about and what she wants. This girl is ready for a quiet life in a dog-free home with some adult (older teenagers OK) pals that she can love on. She would be happy to have a friendly cat pal, too!
Life can be scary for a little cat, but Alex is hoping to find her forever family that knows what it is like to live with anxiety and are ready to open their homes and hearts to her.
Are you and Alex a match? Check out her complete profile to learn more about the adoption process!

Synetic Theater Camps are a wildly fun, highly accessible choice for young people who love moving, playing games, and making memories. Registration is open now for Summer Camps (sessions June 20-August 25) and there are even a few spots left for Spring Break camp, April 3-7.
Located in National Landing, these performance-based camps are designed for students of all ages – no theater or performance experience required.
Led by professional teaching artists, campers learn acting, movement, and technical theater skills through the lens of Physical Theater. Physical Theater incorporates acting, movement, dance, mime, and acrobatics. If you’ve seen a Cirque du Soleil performance, you’ll find many similarities.
Most first-time campers are new to the performing arts, and teaching artists are well-versed in engaging students at all levels. Parents and campers report that one of the best parts of Synetic is the community, with many families returning year after year because they feel a strong sense of belonging.
