‘Unwanted’ Cat Clings to Veterinary Team That Saved Him and Expresses Appreciation by Offering ‘Help’

Buggy, a 15-year-old cat, was brought to a vet clinic by his family because they were no longer interested in him. The cat was friendly with the caregivers and in good health considering his age.

Upon discovering his predicament, the veterinary team declined to give up on him. In order to give him the opportunity to have a happy life, they volunteered to save him. Buggy immediately won over everyone at the clinic with her self-assurance.

“He followed the front desk receptionists everywhere he went while he was there,” said Celine of Chatons Orphelins Montreal.

That day, Buggy turned into a star, greeting patients and their families and giving comforting hugs and purrs to the staff. He made everyone smile by acting like the ideal assistant and strolling around with his tail up.

He was not at all bothered by other creatures. Buggy was quite charming and merely desired attention. He was content to be picked up and held by everyone.”

Despite his small limitation in his hind legs, Buggy is in good physical condition. “X-rays revealed no problems at all. His back legs occasionally slip, and he simply walks like a tiny grandfather.”

Buggy settled in right away after being taken home to foster by a volunteer from the rescue.

“He likes to follow his humans around and has a cat-dog temperament. He seizes every chance to pursue love. He gets along well with everyone, even dogs and cats.”

Buggy is a kind and merciful spirit that has complete faith in his humans.

He follows them around the home, keeping an eye on them to make sure nobody is left alone. “He is endearing and so easygoing.”

“He went to work with his humans and just lay in a basket, surveying the room and watching all the action.”

“He may be a senior, but in his core, he is still a baby. He adores catnip toys and licks them all over, purring loudly.”

Occasionally, Buggy picks up a piece of kibble with his paw and puts it in his mouth like a classy dog. “He is so gentle and always makes little meows to get us to pay attention to him.”

The adorable teddy bear has discovered his go-to window seat for sunbathing, where he can see passing people, small animals, and the outside world.

He has made friends with other cats in the house and is particularly drawn to the more senior members of the feline community.

He does everything the older cats do, following their lead. He longs for universal love.”

Buggy is the happiest cat in the world when he has a few toys, warm sunlight, and company. “This cat is the cutest thing ever. He purrs as soon as we pet him since he likes attention.”

Buggy is eager to find a home where he will be treasured and lavished with attention, having been given a second shot at life by the kind veterinary staff and volunteers.
