All Paul Huguenard of Greenhills wanted Tuesday after a hard day’s work was something cold.

He got it when he opened his freezer and found “Oreo” — his cat.

Greenhills police arrested his son, Mark Huguenard, 23, and charged him with cruelty to animals.

“Mark stated he put cat in freezer because it was breathing heavy,” Paul Huguenard told police.

The incident happened at 6:32 p.m. Tuesday. Mark Huguenard was arrested an hour later.

Police said when they arrived, “Oreo” the cat, was “shaking severely” and cold to the touch.

“Observed cat hair in the freezer,” police documents note.

In court today, Paul Huguenard said his son has an alcohol problem.

“He is drinking to insanity on a consistent basis,” the father told Hamilton County Municipal Court Judge Heather Russell.

The judge ordered Mark Huguenard held on $1,000 bond. She also ordered him, if he makes bond, to be placed on house arrest, wear an electronic ankle monitor and stay away from his parents.

A driver realized that a cat had become stuck inside her engine while driving down Goldenwest Street near Edinger Avenue around 11:37 a.m. Saturday.

The woman pulled her car over and turned off the engine to wait for a tow truck to raise the car so she could get the cat out of the engine through the undercarriage.

While she was waiting, her car became a traffic hazard for other drivers and the car was almost hit several times.

A tow-truck driver eventually arrived and helped to free the feline, and it was deemed unharmed.
