Feature creature: Fuzzbucket

Thu., July 13, 2006

It doesn’t get any cuter than this.

Fuzzbucket is one of three tiny, puffy, adorable calico kittens being held at the SCRAPS shelter in Spokane Valley. The kittens are very tiny and very cute and are more than happy to be taken out of the cage and carried around the room. They are not hyperactive and are very content with snuggling in your lap. Finding Fuzzbucket and her sisters will be easy: Just go to the SCRAPS shelter and look for the cutest cats in the room.

Anyone interested in adopting this cat or other animals can visit the SCRAPS shelter at 2521 N. Flora Road, call the shelter at 477-2532 or visit the Web site at www.spokanecounty.org/animal. Cats cost $55.68 to adopt, which includes a license, neutering, vaccinations, a microchip implant and a trip to the veterinarian.
