SAFE 3/13/17
Alpha came in as a stray cat that that is quite handsome boy that needs a foster with patience. He is not allowing us to pet him at the shelter but may need a quieter environment. He arrived a few days ago and will need more time to adjust. He is not lunging or acting aggressive but he should go to an experienced foster.
