About Big Head Fred

Big Head Fred is a charming young cat who found his way to us as a stray. Rescued from a risky location, he was neutered to ensure he can live a long, healthy life without contributing to overpopulation in Hamilton County. His puffy cheeks, a trademark of unaltered males, have become an adorable feature now that he's been neutered and is settling into his new life. Fred is surprisingly social for a former street cat and enjoys being held. His calm demeanor is evident, even in a busy environment with other cats. He has shown that he can easily adapt, remaining independent yet friendly with his roommates. Fred is great with children and would likely do well in a home where he is either the only cat or has a couple of laid-back feline companions. Consider meeting Fred to see if he's the loving companion you’ve been looking for. He is FIV/FeLV negative and ready for adoption. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
