Frieda, the Cat of the Day
Name: Frieda
Age: Five months old
Gender: Female
Kind: Domestic Short Hair
Home: Nova Scotia, Canada
 
   This is my kitten Frieda. She was dropped at the SPCA where my mom works when she was only a few hours old. Her mother was in labour and in trouble and the owner didn't want to deal with it, so they left her and three kittens in a box on the doorstep. The mom cat had to have an emergency surgery where she lost the last three kittens due to complications. Mom and babies couldn't stay at the shelter because they were too young, so we brought them home to foster until they were old enough to adopt to homes.

    I loved this one little kitten from the first day I saw her. And when it came time to send everyone back for adoption, my mom said that we could keep one. So I picked Frieda and she's now my best friend. She is very affectionate and likes to be cuddled. She especially likes her belly rubbed. She really loves to have a piece of fresh catnip from our garden. After which she goes a little crazy running around the house and up the walls. She comes when she's called and when you shake her treat can. She likes to play tag with me and we chase each other around the house. Another favorite game for her is to attack feet under the covers.
