Big Lou is a 5-year-old, neutered cat who is — and we cannot stress this enough — an ABSOLUTE UNIT. He is large. He is in charge. He moves with purpose and the confidence of someone who knows the wet food budget revolves around him.
Lou is curious, adventurous, and fully committed to exploring every inch of his domain. Cabinets? Investigated. Countertops? Patrolled. Things you thought were out of reach? Incorrect. Big Lou will find them.
Despite his impressive size, Big Lou has a very specific hobby: napping in tiny little huts clearly meant for much smaller beings. He will cram himself in, achieve maximum comfort, and nap like a king. Physics are optional.
He is also the proud owner and sole proprietor of
BIG LOU’S BISCUIT SALOON
An elite, feline owned establishment where this unit works double shifts. Every biscuit is made by the owner himself and includes complimentary cuddles. When Big Lou’s off the clock he likes to sit back and enjoy a can of fancy feast gravy lovers wet food (chicken or beef) or Purina One Tender Select Blend dry food.
Big Lou is also very vocal and has no problem using his voice to communicate his needs. Hungry? You’ll know. Wants attention? You’ll definitely know. Has a thought? He’s sharing it.
Despite his “absolute unit” status, Big Lou is a lovable goof with a heart as big as his frame. He enjoys supervising daily life, judging your decisions silently, and reminding you ✨loudly ✨when it’s time for wet food (and also when it’s almost time for wet food).
At 5 years old, neutered, seasoned, and snack-motivated, Big Lou is out of his kitten era and deep into his “respected neighborhood legend” phase.
If you’re looking for:
✔️ A curious explorer
✔️ A large cat with even larger personality
✔️ The proud proprietor of Big Lou’s Biscuit Saloon, professional tiny-hut napper, and full-time communicator
Then congratulations. You’ve been chosen.
Adopt Big Lou. Respect the Saloon. Bring wet food.

More about this rescue
🐾 Our Mission at Billy the Kidden Rescue 🐾
Billy the Kidden Rescue is a VDACS-registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit, founded in 2014 and supported by a network of over 60 active foster homes across Hampton Roads.
Our mission is to improve the lives of displaced cats and reduce the feral cat population in our community by socializing outdoor-born and feral kittens—transforming them into loving, adoptable pets and placing them in safe, forever homes.
💙 Our Heart is in TNR
We are proud advocates of TNR (Trap, Neuter, Return)—the humane, effective method of managing community cats. Through this program, feral cats are:
✔️ Trapped
✔️ Neutered or Spayed
✔️ Vaccinated
✔️ Ear-Tipped (as a universal sign they've been fixed)
✔️ Returned to live safely in their outdoor colonies without contributing to overpopulation.
We are actively working to promote legal and social acceptance of TNR in Hampton Roads.
🐱 Feral Kitten Socialization
Our feral kitten socialization program is one of a kind—with a 90% success rate in helping feral-born kittens become affectionate, in-home pets. Through experienced fostering, patience, and love, these kittens learn to trust, play, and thrive indoors.
💪 Get Involved!
We’re always looking for passionate animal lovers to join our team. Help us make a difference by becoming a:
Foster
Volunteer
Transporter
TNR Trapper
🎁 Support Our Work
Donations keep our rescue running, and we’re always in need of supplies! Check out our wish lists to see what’s needed most:
