Pet of the Week – Buttercup
Buttercup has an interesting story. Sometime in the late spring he manged to get inside the home of his foster mom, unbeknownst to her, and take up residence in the basement. He looked so much like another shy pretty buff-colored resident cat that he was there, maybe for weeks, before she finally realized that she had two shy pretty buff-colored cats living with her. OK, so she was really busy getting ready for the Humane Society Fur Ball and maybe not paying a lot of attention.
