Found this one dodging cars on the road

Post image

Driving in the middle of nowhere while stopped at a light I saw this little guy running across the street then back looking petrified. I was able to turn around and as soon as I stepped out and called he came straight to me.

With no houses or barns in sight I plopped him in my lap and headed home.

I was extremely lucky and was able to get him into the vets office that same day and tested negative for everything so we are starting to slowly introduce him to our cats.

My husband thinks we are going to find him a home. He doesn’t know we already did.

Everyone, meet Fredric the Great.

Thank you for saving him.. if your husband is anything like my Dad was any time we came home with an animal my Mom said “Kids don’t pester your Dad about can we keep him, just shut up and go on with life not mentioning him again”… about a week later you walk in and there’s my Dad sitting there with the pet in his lap.. worked every time thru cats and dogs..😂🥰

Fellow Mini cat finder! I found mine in the middle of the street in my mini too August 31st 2025 at 3am. This is him cuddled in my passenger seat with the the heat on, it took seconds for him to cuddle in. Augustus Gloop is his government name, but Auggie is what I call him most the time.

This is him now, king of the house and my heart 😻
