Fred and his sister Louise were picked up by OKC animal control in December 2021 due to living in a hoarding house in neglectful situations. Their foster then picked them up from the shelter the following day. They are the best of friends and take great care of each other. They have their own room now to themselves at the foster's home! Fred's favorite activity is drinking water from a running faucet. He will come out wherever he is once he hears the sink faucet turn on. His favorite resting place is on a chair with a heated blanket, but he is also a huge fan of laying on the window sunbathing. Wherever his sister Louise is, there he is to. Fred is the big brother of Louise although they are not related. He is estimated 7 years old and she is estimated to be about 2 years old. They are the most bonded pair of cats we have seen and are constantly together cuddling or looking out the window together. They definitely need each other. Fred is the best big brother. Fred started having labored breathing on 02/07. He was taken to the regular vet who determined there was fluid in his lungs and he needed to be rushed to the ER. It took over 24 hours to stabilize him. They were able to perform an ECHO on his heart and determined he has cardiomyopathy. He is at a hospital for one more evening and will be on lifelong medication. The rescue is completely exhausted of funds. The foster offered to pay for his treatment upfront so that he is able to get his care asap and quite honestly, survive.
