My personality

My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Butternut is your modern-day Garfield, with a heart full of love and a purr that can brighten any room! This charming boy has a story as sweet as he is. Found scavenging for scraps, Butternut has traded his days on the streets for a life full of love, cuddles, and endless affection. Now, he’s on the hunt for a forever home that will give him all the love he so deeply deserves! If you’re looking for a snuggly companion who will make every moment special, Butternut is your perfect match.

At just around 2 years old, Butternut is a gentle soul who has mastered the art of being the ultimate lovebug. He adores head rubs and will come running at the first sign of affection, soaking up every pet with the sweetest, loudest purr that fills the room with warmth. When you stop, he’ll give you a gentle tap with his paw, asking politely for just a little more—and let’s be honest, who could ever resist his soft plea for attention? Whether you’re watching TV, working from home, or reading a book, Butternut will be right by your side, always ready for snuggles and companionship.

Butternut is not just a snuggler—he’s a conversationalist too! This boy loves to chat and will keep you company with his talkative meows throughout the day. And when playtime comes around, he’s all in, chasing toys and pouncing with joy. He has a soft spot for lickable treats, and you’ll win his heart even more with those tasty snacks.

Butternut is FIV+, but don’t let that deter you! FIV+ cats can live long, full lives with just a little extra attention to their health, and Butternut is ready to show you how much love he still has to give. He gets along wonderfully with other animals and would fit in seamlessly with any family, making him the purrfect companion. His playful and easygoing personality makes him a great match for households with other pets, children, or even as a solo cat looking for a best friend.

Butternut is neutered, microchipped, and fully vaccinated. All he needs now is a home full of love, head rubs, and cozy spots to nap the day away! If you’re ready to fall head over heels for a truly amazing, sweet, and affectionate companion, Butternut is waiting with a lifetime of love and purrs in store just for you!!

Additional adoption info
