Archie's Petfinder Ad - July 2003

This was Archie's "ad" on Petfinder in July 2003.  My much loved black cat had recently passed away at age 17 and I was still grieving over that and missing his presence.  I wanted another house cat so I went on Petfinder.com and ran across Archie (nee Buttercup).  She was about a year old and as often happens she was not being adopted in favor of all of the adorable baby kittens.  She had only a few days left before euthanization and the shelter was trying hard to find someone to take her. She is a wonderful cat and so gorgeous.  She's everything they said plus more.  The ad read:

"Buttercup has reached the short timers list at the shelter.  Don't let this nice cat be passed by.  She is very cuddly and is just a love bug.  This cat has the personality to sit in your lap for hours just to be stroked on the head.  Very nice cat.  Extremely affectionate and completely litter box trained."

Thank you, Petfinder and the Amelia County Animal Shelter!  She's marvelous!
