There is a feline named Bum who has a perpetually worried expression that is becoming a sensation online. Owned by 24-year-old Courtney Morman, Bum is a rescue cat whose unique look is being shared on Instagram to raise awareness for other cats in need of homes. Courtney created the account ‘Worried_Cat_AKA_Bum’ just a week ago, and it has already attracted over 500 followers in no time.
Bum, the adorable cat known as Worried Cat, has taken the internet by storm, becoming the latest viral sensation.
Once the thoughtful feline was showcased on the popular cat enthusiasts website Love Meow, pictures of him quickly spread like wildfire across the internet.
Despite his unique appearance with crossed eyes, Bum has perfect vision and Courtney says he enjoys chasing after things. The almost two-year-old cat gained internet fame after being featured on the popular cat blog, Love Meow, where his adorable pensive expression captured hearts.
Although Bum’s eyes may look a bit unusual, there are no health concerns associated with them. According to Courtney, his eyes and lids are shaped in a quirky way, but otherwise he is completely healthy. He has been checked by a vet and given a clean bill of health.
Courtney mentioned that Bum has sharp vision and is an excellent bug-catcher. He also loves playing with toys and can easily chase them down. Bum, along with his littermates, was brought to the San Diego Humane Society’s Kitten Nursery when he was only 5 months old. Courtney, who works at the nursery, instantly fell in love with Bum and decided to adopt him.
In a nod to her favorite baseball team, the San Francisco Giants, Courtney named him after pitcher Madison Bumgarner on the day the team won the 2014 World Series.
According to Courtney, Bum is a cheerful and affectionate cat who enjoys looking after other feline companions in foster care.
Courtney describes the cute cat as having a lot of character, and she mentions that he is very affectionate once he becomes familiar with you.
Courtney has been leveraging her newfound fame to raise awareness for rescue cats. She shared, “I just wanted to spread the word that I adopted this amazing cat from a rescue shelter.”
The sneaky and clever feline known as Bum is quite the character according to his owner, Courtney. Despite his anxious appearance, Bum has a big heart and a playful spirit. Courtney chose his silly name based on his unique look and personality – a perfect fit for her mischievous companion.
Bum’s talents go beyond just playing with boxes and snuggling on Courtney’s face. He is a master at opening drawers and even knows how to unzip zippers to get what he wants from her purse. This has forced Courtney to keep a close eye on her belongings and secure everything to prevent Bum from getting into mischief.
In addition to being a skilled cat burglar, Bum is also a caring helper to other rescue cats. He adores kittens and has even assisted Courtney in fostering young litters, as well as spending time with injured cats in need of rehabilitation. Alongside his feline friends, Bum shares his home with Admiral Kitty Kingman, a three-legged cat who adds even more charm to their cozy household.
Courtney took in Bum as a small kitten and shares that he has developed a fondness for being in the company of foster kittens.
Business cat Bum is the newest sensation to take the internet by storm, following a trend of feline stars that have captivated audiences worldwide.
Courtney decided to call the worried little cat Bum as a tribute to San Francisco Giants pitcher Madison Bumgarner.
