Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Meet Mrs. Buttersworth! 🍯🐾 This sweet, squishy tabby girl has a story that will melt your heart. About three years old, Mrs. Buttersworth was rescued from the middle of I-35 where she was desperately trying to climb onto a concrete barrier to safety. Her poor little paws were raw, and her nails worn down to nubs—but despite her rough start, she’s shown nothing but love and gratitude ever since. Mrs. B is a true people-cat. She adores cuddles, naps with her humans, and will happily soak up all the attention you’re willing to give. Don’t let her round figure fool you—she still enjoys playtime and batting at toys! And yes, she loves her treats and isn’t shy about reminding you when it’s snack time. She does fine with calm, respectful dogs but would really prefer to be someone’s one-and-only feline queen. If you’re looking for a loyal, affectionate companion with a big heart (and an even bigger purr), Mrs. Buttersworth is your girl. ✨ Ready to let this syrup-sweet tabby pour a little love into your life? ✨

Story

**🏁 Meet Mustang – The Fastest Purr in the West! 🏁**Buckle up, because this little guy is built for speed, snuggles, and serious cuteness. Meet **Mustang**, a turbo-charged tabby and white male kitten with a heart full of horsepower and a spirit that can’t be tamed!Born on **March 29, 2025**, in the backseat of an old Mustang (yes, *the* car), this little legend was destined for greatness. His fierce and fearless mama did everything she could to keep her tiny crew safe until some kind-hearted pit crew members (aka rescuers) stepped in and brought the whole family into the safety of a loving foster garage—err, home. Once there, this little racer hit the gas and never looked back.Mustang’s a sporty little number who *lives* for the zoomies. He’s got a finely-tuned pounce, championship-level wrestling skills, and he’s always up for a high-octane chase with the other kittens in his foster pit crew. But don’t be fooled—when the checkered flag drops and it’s time to cool down, Mustang turns into a total snuggle-mobile. Lap time? He’s all in.He’s been around both big and little humans, and he loves all his pit crew members equally. While he hasn’t had much experience with dogs yet, this kitten is still in the early laps of life and is more than willing to warm up to a family floofer with a bit of patience and training.Mustang is tuned up, vaccinated, and ready to roll into his forever home. If you’re looking for a kitten with the spirit of a race car and the soul of a cuddler, **Mustang’s your ride-or-die**.🏎️ **Start your engines—and your adoption application—today!**
