Pet Project: Sam the Onion Man looking for someone to love him ‘Holes’-heartedly

WICHITA, Kan. (KSNW) — Kansas Humane Society’s Director of Communications Jordan Bani-Younes brought in Sam the Onion Man, a kitten, to KSN’s Pet Project on Thursday afternoon.

He weighs 2 pounds and is 2 months old.

Bani-Younes says Sam the Onion Man got his name from the book “Holes.”

“He can build a boat,” said Bani-Younes. “He does know the secret of the onions and he’s willing to share that with you if you adopt him.”

He says the kitten is very fast and likes to run.

“He gets the zoomies. He also really likes to cuddle, and he’s very sweet,” said Bani-Younes.

Don’t confuse Sam the Onion Man for a parrot, as he likes to sit on shoulders.
