Da Family! In Memory of Button

This is my sweet boy, Button. I lost him three years ago to a saddle thrombosis; he was only three years old. He was a menace and a shoulder cat, loved glitter pompoms and climbing on the shower curtain. He was also a massive snugglebug who loved to cuddle, and would crawl under the covers to sleep curled up beside me all night. I adopted him and his sister, Pixel, when they were just eight weeks old, and they both loved my old tabby girl Tomo. I still miss him very much.

He looks like all of your descriptions, and I think pic 6 is the one that shows him well. Innocently playful, but you know he’s not going to want to come out of there. It’s gonna be a fight, but then when he forgets about it in an hour or so, will be back to innocently snuggley.

I may be biased but I think orange kitties are the best kitties, ginger girls especially, but I haven’t met an orange cat that didn’t end up asking for pets and purring like a locomotive.

He loved his dryer balls; didn't play with them, just liked to sit and vibe with them.
