My personality

My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Alvaro’s curious, energetic personality makes him a favorite with our Cat Pawsitive Pro volunteers—he’s very quick to pick up on clicker training, especially when we offer treats! This young dude is often found peeking out of his door at Kitty City, eager to see what’s going on. Alvaro absolutely loves to play! While at home together, expect him to ask for frequent play sessions. Bring out a wand toy and enjoy his acrobatics!
Are you Alvaro’s new family? If you’re an experienced cat person looking for an active, playful companion to keep you entertained, you might just be the perfect fit.

More about this shelter

PAWS Chicago is the city's largest No Kill humane organization, focused on solutions to end the killing of homeless pets. Since our founding in 1997, homeless dogs and cats killed annually in the City of Chicago has dropped more than 50 percent. PAWS Chicago is working to build a No Kill Chicago -- a city where pets are no longer destroyed just because they are homeless.
