Freddie

My story

Are you home a lot and seeking a cuddly companion? I`m looking for a hero to take care of me and give me lots of love and snuggles and let me sleep with them at night. My foster parents say I`m the sweetest cat they`ve ever met. I don`t know about that; I just want pets and cuddles!I had a pretty rough time on the streets, but I still love people and want to be around them all the time. As you can see from my video, I`m more interested in laptime than playtime. If you stand next to me, I will gently put my paws on you to say, `Pick me up and cuddle me, please!`I love getting brushed, and I don`t mind getting my nails trimmed as long as someone is petting me while you do it. I have used my litter box consistently since day one of being indoors.I have diabetes, so I need special food and a tiny bit of insulin twice a day. I don`t even notice my insulin injections. The needle is really small and not scary at all. My foster parents say it`s very easy to learn to give insulin, so I know you can do it for me too.I`m missing a couple of important teeth and I`m not very fond of wet food, so I just swallow my dry food. Fortunately, my special kibble is small. I especially enjoy my food if you pet me while I`m eating.I am startled by unexpected movements, probably because of my hard time outside, and I need to get my insulin on a schedule, so I should be an indoor-only kitty. I do like to sniff at an open window, but otherwise, I`m only slightly interested in the outdoors, anyway.Will you be my hero and give me a safe forever home? I promise to give you so much love in return! Pets are complex beings and prior to adoption, interested adopters will be counseled by a staff member to discuss the specific needs for each animal.
