Critter Details
See Fred’s HomepageGo to our official websiteYou can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Fred is a sweet 6-month-old boy who is still learning what love is. Fred is very timid and needs a calm, quiet environment with very patient humans. He will need to go to a home with a confident companion kitty who can show him the finer parts of the domesticated life. An ideal scenario would be to get adopted with his sister, Georgie! Click here to learn about her. Fred is currently taking medicine to help with anxiety, and in just a few days, his confidence has increased. He will make a wonderful family member to anybody who will show him the love and patience he needs to feel secure. Fred is from a stray surrender with one sibling. If you are interested in getting to know this animal better, please fill out an adoption application. An adoption application is the best way to show your interest in an animal and is not a binding contract. To learn more about Ruff Start’s adoption process and the care our foster animals receive, please visit our How to Adopt page. If you are unable to adopt but want to help this animal and others in our care, you can donate to support the medical and veterinary needs of all Ruff Start Rescue animals. Want to adopt a kitten? We highly recommend you consider bringing home two instead of one! Adopting kittens in pairs has been proven to be beneficial for cats’ emotional and behavioral well-being and greatly improves the likelihood of long-term adopter happiness as a result. Adopting more than one kitten also reduces the risk of “Single Kitten Syndrome” (also known as Tarzan Syndrome), a symptom of under-socialization during a kitten’s most formative weeks. Kittens who are under-socialized may develop aggressive tendencies toward both other animals and humans as they grow, creating lifelong behavioral issues for owners.
