About Frank

What are you waiting for? Apply today! Frank and Fred are two sweet, bonded brothers who adore playing and sharing affection. While they can be a little shy at first, their gentle natures shine through once they feel comfortable, and soon they’re arching their backs and nudging for pets! These loving cats have been returned to the rescue through no fault of their own and are longing for a forever home where they can receive the attention and companionship they crave. After being adopted in 2022, Frank had a little adventure—he slipped outside, injured his leg, and needed surgery. Thankfully, his leg has healed completely! The boys were returned because their prior home couldn’t guarantee their safety indoors, and again later, simply because they didn’t get along with other animals. Frank and Fred are social and affectionate with people, and a home where they can be the only pets is exactly what they need. Their greatest joys are basking in sunbeams, gazing out windows, and snuggling on the couch. These sweet boys must be adopted together; they are a delightful, cuddly pair ready to fill your home with love. Both were born in early July, which makes them caring and intuitive Cancers—expect lots of cozy cuddles! Ready to fall in love? Hit apply and lets get started.
