Each week in this space, we feature a senior cat in need of
adoption or sponsorship. Please remember all the older cats in shelters. They
make great companions, and unlike kittens, they (probably) won’t climb the
curtains! Adopt a senior cat, and help him or her enjoy the best years of their
life.

If this
week’s cat looks familiar, that’s because we just featured him a few weeks ago.
This guy’s name is Cordel, and he recently got placed in a foster home through
the Washington Humane Society. Cordel’s foster mom has shared some information
on him so you can get to know him a little better and find out what a great cat
he truly is.
Just to
remind you, Cordel is 8 years old, which means he is all grown up but you and he
could share many wonderful years together. He was found on the streets, so
nothing is really known about his past, but his foster mom reports that he
loves attention. He loves to be petted and to rub himself against somebody. He’s
not into sitting on laps though. When he curls up, his floofy tail covers his face, which I think is an ingenious way to keep the sun out of his eyes.

Cordel
also likes to play…Wait…I have to make an editorial adjustment…Cordel loves to play. His Favorite Thing is the
bird toy that he can chase and jump after. So much fun! His foster mom reports that
he has a lot of energy and sometimes goes skidding around at top speed. But he’s
also a real chill dude who doesn’t get his fur ruffled too easily. With all
this energy and chill attitude, he might be a good fit for a family with
children. He also likes to look out the window, where he seems really
interested in all the sounds outside.
Can’t adopt but still want to help? Look into sponsoring an animal in the shelter or in foster care. Other donations also make a big difference in the lives of shelter pets!
