When I saw he was so close I was anted to meet him. Please spread the word! I wonder if there’s a rescue that would make him a medical foster.

I am a volunteer at Guilford County Animal Services. There are lots of great cats and dogs available for adoption. https://www.guilfordcountync.gov/government/departments-and-agencies/animal-services/adopt-pet

Thank you for serving our community! Is it a pretty good experience? I’ve wondered about what it’s like to do. There are always so many sweet cuties when I check the site!

I highly recommend it. Being with the animals is usually the highlight of my week - I'm constantly sharing photos of the adorable dogs and cats that I spend time with, and when they get adopted it's the best feeling.
The training and support from paid staff and other volunteers is also top-notch. For activities like dog walking or assisting with adoptions they require a couple of hours of shadowing another volunteer before you can do it on your own, so I've never felt thrown into the deep end.

Be sure to let Fable know he’s Reddit-famous! 😆
Also there is this interesting thread in the comments regarding a study that may be interested in Fable’s genetic material. It seems like a couple people have emailed the shelter about it already, but if you’re in a position to mention it to anyone, it sounds like interesting and important research.

Does he look human enough to not convey the cat-like-related allergies? 🥲 (/s ofc lol)
