Mr. Fresh is a famous internet cat. He has risen to fame thanks to a video of him giving the camera a side-eye. He was named Mr. Fresh after his patient yet picky behavior regarding the food he will eat. Since he is such a celebrity, any stream in which he is sighted will increase in viewership considerably.

Mr. Fresh covered in dried chicken and looking very mad.

Mr. Fresh was previously a visitor at Happy Canteen and Auspicious Restaurant. Once he was taken in for vet care, he had a temporary stay at Brother Fresh's Last Day.

Nowadays, you can find Mr. Fresh at Brother Fresh’s Exclusive Castle CatMojo, in his new home.

Behavior

Mr. Fresh used to only eat freshly dispensed food. He would stare at the camera and, on rare occasions, even touch it with his paws until fresh food was dispensed.

It is said that he refuses to eat already dispensed kibble after eating a bunch that had been contaminated by bird poop. However, this was later debunked. The real reason behind his pickiness is unknown.

Recently he has been less picky, being able to eat the Freeze-dried chicken snacks without having to wait for donators to dispense more.

Mr. Fresh jumpscare (very scary)

He has been seen peeking his head near the sides of the feeders to check if other cats are currently present. He will not eat if there are other cats already at the feeder, and so he will retreat and return at another time, or visit another available feeder.

He is scared of humans, being scared away when caretakers encounter him when they arrive to refill the feeders. He was also seen running around when his adopters tried to pick him up for a vet visit.

Appearance

Mr. Fresh is a Domestic Shorthair cat. He has a Ginger Mackerel Tabby fur coat with low grade white spotting. He has white fur on the neck and paws, extending to a small white spot to the left of his nose. He has Hazel eyes, and his paw beans are pink.

In early appearances, Mr. Fresh was a lot skinnier. In more recent times, he is rather fat.

Mr. Fresh has been mistaken for other orange cats, including Mr. Normal and Mr. Piss.

Post that was made on the Hello Street Cat App regarding Mr. Fresh

Regarding the adoption arrangements for Mr. Fresh,

As of today, Mr. Fresh has been residing in the stray cat isolation room for 18 days. During this time, he has been carefully taken care of and accompanied by two experienced colleagues who are adept at raising cats. However, due to his long history of being a stray, Mr. Fresh still maintains a strong sense of wariness and does not allow people to approach him closely to other cats.

During this period, we have been maintaining active communication with the guardian. In last week's exchange, we learned that the guardian has found an adopter for Mr. Fresh and plans to take him to the adopter's home soon. As a platform, we will assist the guardian in formulating the adoption agreement and conduct a review of the adopter to ensure that Mr. Fresh can live safely, happily, and quietly in the future.

We are pleased to see that Mr. Fresh's mealtime scenes, captured by the cat house camera, have attracted the love of many supporters. Because of Mr. Fresh, everyone has begun to care for more stray cats. We have also noticed that many people in the cat community are calling for the hope to see Mr. Fresh on camera again.

To give everyone the opportunity to reunite with Mr. Fresh once more, before he is adopted, we have decided to place a cat house in the isolation room. Concerned friends of Mr. Fresh can visit the cat house labeled "Mr. Fresh's last day". The cat house is exclusively for Mr. Fresh, so please feed him rationally. Thank you for your support and understanding.

• March 13, 2024: Mr. Fresh was captured by his guardian or a vet, and the stream of Brother Fresh's Last Day was temporarily shut off for about thirty minutes before returning. At around 03:00 PM Mr. Fresh was given a cone of shame and forced to be checked out by a staff member or possible vet. After only 5 minutes he was let free again. The following text was posted by Hello Street Cat staff. Mr. Fresh will probably be on the "Last Day" stream for the following week.

The following post was made about Fresh's Adoption.

This afternoon, we took Mr. Fresh to the vet for a comprehensive pre-adoption examination. This examination revealed that he has Urinary Tract Stones and Cystitis due to long term wandering. The doctor recommended giving medicine first and returning in a week. In the next week, we will give him medicine and feed him prescribed food according to the doctors recommendation. Other exams are still waiting. After the results are back we will share them with everyone.
