Meet Alvin | Rehome With Love

Alvin is an one-year-old cat who was rescued from the West Michigan Humane Society and is now looking for his forever home.

He has a huge personality that everyone falls in love with. Alvin is incredibly sweet, affectionate, and loves being around people. Whether he's curling up next to you for cuddles or following you around the house, he's always happy to be part of the action.
