    "Meet Alfie, a 10-year-old super loving boy who is eagerly looking for someone to give all the hugs and kisses to!" the caption begins. "Alfie is so affectionate, we look forward to seeing him everyday. We know it’s only fair to share the love and find him a great family that will appreciate being greeted and snuggled. Can you offer this sweet old man a home and a hug?!"

    The 37-second clip shows Alfie loving on each and every person who stops by to take him out of his cage. You can tell by the way he nuzzles them how grateful he is to feel love and many commented how precious he is.

    "OMG, I can quit my job stay home and cuddle him all day long!!" one person wrote. "Been looking my whole life for a love like that," another said. "What an absolutely, sweet snuggly boy," another added.

    Alfie is the best boy. Here's hoping his forever home is out there.

    Take a Chance on Senior Pets

    Senior pets like Alfie are among the most overlooked at shelters and rescues even though they have so many wonderful things going for them. Best Friends Animal Society says of the reasons to adopt a senior , the fact that they already know the ways of the world, and what they like and don't like, tops the list. That means you won't have to worry about litter or potty training, leash walking (for dogs), or a number of other things they've already mastered.

    Their experience through the years has also taught them not to destroy furniture and how to take the time to smell the roses. Life is too short, and they'e the perfect inspiration to show us to live in the moment.

    Seniors also don't need as much supervision and are more likely to spend their time snuggling up on the couch with you, which is a win-win. Like Alfie, they have so much love to give and deserve a chance to receive it as well.

    Speaking of love to give, Alfie is a total sweetheart that, according to the comments, is good with dogs and cats. If you're prepared to have tons of hugs and kisses from the senior kitty, he's your boy. To inquire about adopting Alfie, contact P.A.W.S today!
