Alyx is currently in foster care and ready for adoption via our virtual process! Learn more about her time in foster care here: https://acrobat.adobe.com/id/urn:aaid:sc:VA6C2:d240cbbe-6045-4728-b6bd-… Alyx is a 3-year-old female tabby. With her striking appearance, Alyx is sure to bring joy and love into any home. Alyx is spayed, microchipped, vaccinated, and had preventative treatments to ensure she is ready for her new home. Her foster says, "Alyx is a shy cat, she was very fearful at first and hid from us the first 48 hours. She let us pet her and would purr but she would keep hiding. She’s very food motivated but takes a while to trust someone. She’s happy for you to pet her and engage her in her safe space (a pop up tent in this case) Now she’s being more outgoing. She’ll come out of her room and see what we’re doing. Especially when food is involved ! She loves a belly rub.She likes our resident cats a lot, loves sleeping on the sofa. She’s a huge fan of string toys ! She is vocal at meal time and has a tiny little meow. She’s takes a her toys and runs off with them, it’s very funny." Submit an adoption survey from above and our team will reach out via phone or email (check spam) to schedule a counseling call. For any additional questions, please contact fosternyc@bestfriends.org. Please remember, pets cannot be held or reserved.

About Best Friends Animal Society

Best Friends is working to end the killing of dogs and cats in U.S. shelters in part by getting more pets out of shelters and into loving homes.

We’ve come a long way since the first known city reached no-kill in 1994, and now we’re closer than ever to making the entire country no-kill. Of the roughly 3,900 shelters operating in America today, 1,300 of them are not yet no-kill, but nearly half are close with 100 or fewer additional pets to be saved, and we know what to do to get them there.

Best Friends is committed to working with passionate people like you to save homeless pets through adoption, volunteering, fostering, and advocacy. In addition to our lifesaving centers around the U.S, we also founded and run the nation's largest no-kill sanctuary for companion animals.

Working together, we can save homeless pets in our communities and secure a better future for our best friends. Together, we will bring the whole country to no-kill.
