LINDA'S ADVENTURE FROM WEDNESDAY!
It’s Wednesday, so we were anxiously awaiting for the arrival of our volunteer, Linda, to see who she would be taking on an adventure. Alucard was today’s lucky guy! Here’s what she had to say about him:
Alucard! What an unusual name! But when you see his long fangs, it makes sense; it’s Dracula spelled backwards! How fun is that! He also is a polydactyl, and with those extra toes, it looks like he has little hands that are wearing mittens! Too cute!
I harnessed him up, and away we went! He rode with his paws on my shoulder, so curious to see where we were headed. He happily sang along to the oldies with me, belting out Ted Nugent’s “Cat Scratch Fever!” Our first stop was Bay Cities Radio, where he charmed Jim and Chuck, then went on the air with his new BFF, Melissa, to talk about life at the shelter. From there, we went to Mighty Pet, to check out their facilities. He calmly sat on my shoulder while dogs were barking, not bothered one bit by them. He just loved it there, the folks are just so very nice! Our last stop was 35th and Coffee. He really wanted to explore inside, but I convinced him to stay put while his photo was being taken. He posed so majestically! We shared a large, iced, “ Werewolf;” I drank the coffee while he lapped up the whipped cream. What a team we made!
Alucard is just shy of 8 years old, and came from a home with dogs and other cats. In fact, one of his housemates, Patcha, is still at the shelter. They don’t need to be adopted together, but maybe we can do a two for the price of one deal? Hmmmm.
Won’t you consider adopting Alucard? He’d be the purrfect addition to any home!
