Buttercup and her siblings were named after the Powerpuff Girls (& Mojo), but my family and I would often call her by her nicknames Butt/Buttbutt/Butters which she was always happy to hear. She enjoyed basking in the morning sun, tuna, and napping with me. She would often sleep on my lap while I sat at my desk doing homework (photo). She was my sweet and stubborn baby, and I’m grateful for the 14 years we shared together from her first moments to her last.
