Pet of the Week- Fred
Hi there Super Senior Fred the Cat here! My Super Power is “Zen” because I have a calm manor about me. I take whatever comes my way and go with the flow! I am around 12 years young as I’d like to say. I was found abandoned outside the shelter one day and well I am so very thankful for second chances. The Folks here cleaned me up and helped me get vet checked now I am on my hunt for a loving home and someone share the rest of my days with. I am considered a “Special Needs” adoption because I may need dental work in the future. I don’t have much in my wish list but I do like sunny windows and a warm cozy bed.
If you would open up your home and heart to a Senior Kitty like me stop by the shelter to meet me to see if I am a good match. To see Fred and all of the other available dogs and cats at the Christopher Cutler Rich Animal Shelter please go to our website: capeannanimalaid.org.

Menand has written about Eliot before: his first published book was Discovering Modernism: T. S. Eliot and His Context, 1987.
“…Eliot’s father, Henry, who ran a company that manufactured bricks, took the family to Massachusetts every summer, and in 1896, the year Eliot turned eight, Henry built a big house on Cape Ann, in Gloucester, overlooking the outer harbor. Until Eliot went off to Europe, in 1914, he spent his summers there…”
