About Frederick

Frederick is a big, sweet boy searching for a cozy home where he can feel secure. Initially cautious, he puts up a brave front, but given time, his silly and playful personality shines through. He enjoys food—both his and yours—and loves rubbing his face against everything in sight. Catnip mice provide his entertainment, while gentle petting (on his terms) and falling asleep with his head tucked beside you are some of his favorite pastimes. He may start off not being a lap cat, but as he becomes more comfortable, he will gradually ease himself into your space. The key is not to draw attention to it. Frederick has strong preferences about how he likes to be touched, and he may offer a gentle nip if he's had enough. With patience and willingness to read his cues, trust can be built quickly. He considers himself at the perfect weight, although shedding a few pounds might help with his sore elbow, which he's receiving treatment for and responding well. Frederick is a lovely, playful cat who just needs a place to call his own and feel comfortable. He has a lot of love to give! Ready to make Frederick a part of your life? Apply today!
