ABOUT FONZY
Carlie, a young feline who was in the family way, knew she would be giving birth to her litter of kittens soon. So, she looked for a safe place and found one on the back patio of a home. She delivered her five kittens, two girls and three boys, and then her luck got even better. Carlie and her new family were accepted at AALOC, where they all would be cared for without any concern about finding food or being safe. Named after the Happy Days TV show, the girls are called Shirley and Joanie, and the boys Richie, Chachi and of course, Fonzy.
Fonzy is an all-around super star feline. He does it all! Fonzy craves human attention and affection. He’s very sweet and enjoys pets. Fonzy loves to be held and constantly purrs when he’s on your lap or in your arms. And Fonzy is good with other cats, especially with his siblings Richie, Chachi, Joanie and Shirley. Mackerel tabbies come in all colors, but Fonzy is particularly handsome with his broad white chest and paws.
In general mackerel tabbies are known to be adventurous and fun to own. They are very playful and like to have a box of toys from which to choose. They can be “inspectors,” and like to be included in anything that is happening in the house and explore their domains. Many mackerel tabby owners feel mackerel tabbies are extremely intelligent and some say mackerel tabbies are more dog than cat, since they will readily follow you around, play fetch and like to snuggle.
Please submit an application to adopt Fonzy and perhaps one of his siblings too. Once your application is reviewed and approved, we will contact you to make an appointment to visit us at AALOC to meet Fonzy and get to know him a bit.
