My story

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

Meet Bub — Your New Best Buddy in a Cat Suit! Bub is a striking 4-year-old British Shorthair mix with a long, elegant frame and an even bigger personality. He’s the perfect blend of goofy kitten energy and chill, affectionate companion — a total sweetheart who will make you laugh every day.

Personality & Temperament

Bub is extraordinarily friendly, playful, and confident. He’s basically a big kitten in a 13-lb body — he loves to wrestle, chase, and romp around with another cat who appreciates playtime. He becomes fast friends with new feline pals as long as they enjoy a little rough-and-tumble fun.

When he’s not in play mode, Bub is relaxed and easygoing. He loves gentle pets, enjoys sitting or lounging right next to you, and will hang out on the couch or your desk while you work from home. He’s fine being held and carried and even accepts belly rubs like a champ.

Great with Cats, Kids, and More

Bub thrives in a home with another playful cat — that’s his absolute happy place. He does beautifully with children, is very gentle, and adapts quickly to new environments. He isn’t afraid of much, so he may also do well with dogs given slow introductions.

Bub’s Quirky Side

  • He loves food and will loudly remind you when it’s dinnertime.

  • He’s completely obsessed with water: watches showers, drinks from sinks, and supervises bathroom time like a tiny lifeguard.

  • He’s a natural comedian and goofball, but happily chills when the playtime is over.

Snuggles & Comfort

Bub doesn’t just follow you — he genuinely wants to be with you. He’ll lounge nearby, sleep on the couch next to you, curl up beside you at night, or settle in wherever the coziness is.

Bub is a total love bug who thrives on affection, companionship, and a feline friend who enjoys play as much as he does. If you’re looking for a fun, family-friendly cat with a big personality and an even bigger heart, Bub may be your perfect match.

You can save animals like this one by becoming a foster! Fosters are like bridges between high kill shelters and forever homes. We need fosters so that we can save cats and dogs before they are euthanized at the shelters. If you are interested in becoming a foster, please visit: https://fancycats.org/volunteer

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

Our adopters fill out an application that screens for problems that may be detrimental to our cats and kittens. Once the adopter is approved we provide veterinary referrals which help with low cost spays or neuters for the kittens that are too young at the time of adoption. We are always available to help with behavioral issues that arise. We provide numerous information sheets in our adoption folders, plus the medical background of each cat. The only fees involved with our program are adoption fees that offset our veterinary bills.

More about this rescue

Fancy Cats Rescue Team was founded to provide the community a "safety net" for cats and kittens that are abused and abandoned, or added to the euthanasia list at the shelters that we are currently participating with. We are a 501 (c) (3) Nonprofit Organization and participate with the United Way/CFC #8929. The goal is to have no kill shelters in place. Education and responsible pet ownership are the foundation of our organization. Our program provides literature, counseling, referral services and educational resources to families and individuals needing guidance. Teaching people responsible pet guardianship by spay and neutering their pets, behavioral modification and health concerns. We also provide a mentoring environment for our youth volunteers where they can learn the rewards of community service while caring for animals that need their gentle, loving kindness. They also interact with the community providing self-confidence and the ability to interact with a variety of cultures and diverse backgrounds. Once an animal is received into our program, they remain with us until a safe, appropriate home is found. They are never euthanized based on their age or space limitations. They are given appropriate medical care, immunizations, spays or neuters and endless hours of tender, loving care. We are an all-volunteer organization with no paid staff. We are funded by community donations, 91% goes toward the care and well being of our animals. Our adoption fees help offset our veterinary bills.
