Feeling adopter's remorse after getting a dog? It's normal. Learn why it happens, get practical tips, and find out how shelters can help you overcome dog.
Meet Frederick, a truly delightful and happy-go-lucky young cat who is ready to find his forever family! Frederick is a professional biscuit maker, a dedicated lap cat, and a purr machine, always ready to shower you with affection. He's a sweetie who loves to be around others, both humans and fellow felines, and he has a lot to say about life! His foster describes him as bounding with energy, always up for a good play session, and a perfect little buddy to have around.
As a Domestic Short Hair, Frederick embodies the wonderful adaptability and affectionate nature common in mixed-breed cats. He gets along famously with other cats and has lived with dogs in his foster home, making him a versatile companion. He thrives in an environment with other pets to play with, and his foster notes he would make a perfect playmate for a cat-loving dog. Frederick is FIV positive, but with regular vet care and a calm indoor environment, he can live a long, healthy life and safely coexist with other cats, with a very low risk of transmission.
Frederick is looking for an active household where he can share his boundless energy and love. He would thrive with children or other pets, especially another playful cat friend, to keep him entertained. He dreams of a home filled with cuddles, plenty of toys for chasing and darting through tunnels, and a nice high place for naps. If you're looking for a sweet, talkative, and playful companion who will assist with meal prep and fill your home with purrs, Frederick is your guy!
Special Needs
Frederick is FIV positive (Feline Immunodeficiency Virus), but can safely live with other FIV positive cats, and the risk of transmission to non-FIV cats is extremely low in calm, indoor environments.
