Plenty of Sunshine with Sonoma, Our Pet of the Week

A young kitten named Sonoma is our B101.7 Pet of the Week with the Humane Society of West Alabama. There's a story behind her name and a lively video clip too!

Sonoma is a silver, black and white Maine Coon mix with just a little orange. She is 5 months old (as of 9/13/15). She has a beautiful silky coat and a very fluffy tail.

I'm always curious to hear how the shelter volunteers come up with names for these animals. A lot of times, it tracks their history. Especially, for the cats.

Today, I learned this kitty was found by a Sonoma pickup truck. I also think this kitten is a lively ray of sunshine, like in Sonoma, California. You know what they say, it never rains in sunny California. It fits this little one.

Like I mentioned, she is lively, so it would best for to find a home with lots of room to play. She's one curious kitten.

The Humane Society of West Alabama notes:

Sonoma's new family must be prepared to give her all the attention she needs. Sonoma would be a fun playmate to another fun cat or kitten. She is super playful! She is new to the cat house, but she is warming up great, so we know she would warm up well in a new home.

Sonoma is negative for FIV and FeLK and has had her first set of vaccinations. Due to being underage for a spay/neuter surgery, her adoption requires an additional refundable spay/neuter deposit of $100 to reinforce state requirements for all adopted pets to be fixed by age of maturity.

If you are looking for a young, fun addition to your family, then Sonoma is the girl for you! If you are interested in giving Sonoma the forever home she wants and deserves, visit the Humane Society of West Alabama at HumaneSocietyOfWA.org or call (205)-554-0011.
