About Buttercup

Hello there! My name is Buttercup, and I'm an affectionate, calm, and gentle orange-tabby-with-white DSH female who was born in October 2013. I was rescued from living as an outdoor stray at an apartment complex, and I'm so excited to be an inside-only cat again! I'm very sociable and was obviously someone's pet before I was a stray. My new foster mom loves it when I jump up and 'head butt' her. It's just been so long since I've had an opportunity to interact significantly with a human that I can't help myself but demand petting and attention. So I follow her around and weave between her legs -- just trying to plant my pheromones on her. My foster mom says that I'm like a kitten because I'm so curious and love investigating my new 'digs.' And to say that my appetite is 'hearty' is an understatement. Oh my, do I love the canned food as well as the kibble that is generously served up to me! I feel like a queen, but I eat like a horse! I'm sure that I will lighten up on feasting on food once I realize that I'm an indoor cat now and my hardscrabble days are permanently behind me. As much as I like it here in my foster home, I know it's best for me to have a lifetime home of my own. My foster mom has some health issues, limited resources, and a companion cat of her own. Incidentally, I get along with other cats and friendly dogs, but I haven't been tested around kids. I overheard my foster mom say, 'I've never known a more affectionate cat. Whoever gets Buttercup will certainly have such a loving companion.' Could that be you? Then arrange to meet me today so I can greet you with a friendly 'head butt' of your own. Buttercup is updated on shots, spayed, dewormed, FIV/ FeLV negative, and ready for her indoor-only home. She will be microchipped after adoption. No de-clawing permitted.
