Alloy is Your Rancho Coastal Humane Society Pet This Week

He could be your first cat.

(RCHS - Mark Viguri)

Alloy is pet of the week at your Rancho Coastal Humane Society. He’s a 2-year-old, 11-pound, male, Domestic Short Hair cat with a Blue Cream Tabby coat.

Alloy was transferred to Rancho Coastal Humane Society from a rescue partner through the FOCAS (Friends of County Animal Shelters) program.

When he arrived, the animal care attendants noticed that he had a relaxed posture. He didn’t hide in his enclosure. Instead, Alloy sat on the higher levels so he could see his surroundings. He greeted guests into the Cattery with a polite purr and a soft Meow.
