My story

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

Butternut - loving "puppy" kitten

Don't tell Butternut that he isn't a puppy. So what that he purrs instead of barks, and can use a litter box?

He still has the heart and soul of a loving puppy. Butternut follows you all over the home. He absolutely adores his human and wants to be where you are. He looooves to play and even gets into a little puppy mischief (not quite as much as a puppy would, though he certainly tries to live up to it!).

Butternut is also such a sweet lap kitten. Snap your fingers, and he climbs into your lap for non-stop cuddling, purring, petting and cheek rubs. He also relaxes on your shoulder enjoying the high view while you carry him for a little bit.

He is initially shy with strangers and will take a few weeks to acclimate to his new home, but you can easily win him over with some treats and play! It doesn't take long to gain his trust and he will love you forever and always be right by your side like a loyal puppy.
