Buttercup is a very beautiful tortoise shell kitty who loves to be petted. She is a little shy but very sweet.

We are not sure about her past life. She was brought in from the same location as a few other adult cats and many kittens, so she could have been part of a colony of cats that were living outdoors. We just do not know.

She has been with us for a number of months now, and she seems to like living at the adoption center, but we know she would be much happier in a real home curled up on the couch at night with a family that loves her.

If interested in adopting, visit the Marshfield Area Pet Shelter website at www.MarshfieldPetShelter.org and complete an adoption application, or call 715-486-5140 for more information. You can also visit adoptable pets at our Microchip & Adoption Center located at Marshfield Mall from 4:30-6 p.m. Monday-Friday and Saturdays from 11 a.m. – 2 p.m. View all adoptable pets at www.MarshfieldPetShelter.org/adopt.
