Cat Spends Days at Posh Hotel

Animal Radio

Butterscotch, a 14-year-old tabby started out his life living on the streets of South Burlington, Vermont. But now, he spends his days at a posh hotel, often sleeping on the leather chair in front of a fireplace.

Patrick Benner adopted Butterscotch from the Humane Society 8 years ago and was surprised to learn what his cat was up to. According to the staff at Hawthorne Suites, Butterscotch shows up every day at 7:00am and leaves at 6:00pm, almost like he is coming in for work.

He sometimes lounges on the front desk or escorts the new arrivals with their bags. Luckily it’s a pet friendly hotel. Repeat guests sometimes ask, “if that cat’s still there?” when they make reservations. And Butterscotch frequently gets high marks on guest’s comment cards.

Owner Benner says he believes Butterscotch must have lived the “high life” in one of his past cat lives.
