Fonzie resembles the Bengal cat breed with his gorgeous markings and lean body. While Fonzie is neither denying or confirming this, he certainly shares several of the Bengal’s wonderful traits. He loves to be with his foster or any of his foster feline siblings. While he spends most of the day napping in secret locations, he most certainly comes alive at night when he is filled with energy, visiting everyone, and talking up a storm. After all, it is critical that the humans receive a recap of all that has happened that day!
While Fonzie can be a bit timid around strangers, he is still willing to check them out and then watch them carefully while in the room with them. However, if you are his chosen human, he will be super sweet and affectionate, coming up to you with requests for petting just about anywhere on his body!
Like all cats, he does have his dislikes. He is not a fan of being picked up nor being left alone in a closed room, but you are more than welcome to join him in the closed room. So far, he isn’t a fan of scratching pads or posts and prefers the rug. He will stop if you walk over towards him.
Fonzie will do best in a household that understands his needs and dislikes, and can help him burn off his energy. Are you ready for an energetic, fun-loving, affectionate, conversational 3 year-old boy?
Fonzie is currently in foster care. If you are interested in meeting Fonzie, please contact adopt@awlmc.org or call 301-740-2511 and ask to see him. You will not be disappointed!
