About Buttercup

Buttercup is a gentle dilute tortoiseshell who's shown remarkable resilience since her rescue. She used to fend for herself outdoors before being discovered during an estate clean-out, and she's come a long way in her foster home, learning to trust people again. These days, she's affectionate in her own unique way: she’ll lean into pets, gently reach out for attention, and treat you to a little butt wiggle when you hit her favorite spot. Cardboard scratchers and catnip toys bring out her playful side, but she also cherishes quiet companionship—just don't expect her to enjoy being picked up. Buttercup thrives on calm predictability, so an adult-only home suits her best. She prefers life as a single pet to truly relax and bond closely with her person. She doesn’t warm up instantly, but when she trusts you, the relationship feels deeply earned. She’s past the rough part of her story and is now ready for a peaceful, loving home where patience is part of the routine. Buttercup is currently in a foster home in Royal Oak, MI. Lets make it official, apply to adopt!
