There are some kittens and cats that simply take over social media pages. They are just too cute for words, but their foster parent knows that dozens of adorable photos will be enough. No words needed. So when the @hawaiicatfoundation welcomed a tiny ginger kitten into their organization, their followers rejoiced. It was through his foster parents page @baxter_chibi, that the first photos of little Cheeto graced our feeds.
Meet your newest obsession; Cheeto.
The first time we laid eyes upon the newest charge in their care, he was quite rough around the edges. Now, most kittens rescued from the streets are battling a whole range of issues. And Cheeto was no different.
Meet Cheeto!
This sweet, floofy baby was rescued when he was found all alone by a wonderful woman who regularly TNRs in Honolulu. Weāre so grateful to her and to for taking him in. Poor baby had so many worms
but heās been cleaned up and treated for fleas and parasites and is feeling so much better.

Weāre estimating his age at approximately 5 weeks but heās got some weight to gain. But heās eating on his own and even using his litter box like a champ. We initially had him set up in a playpen, but heās such a good boy and is so smart that he now has our whole bathroom to play and run around in.
But Cheetoās outlook has now changed so he can live his best life! For kittens, that means a LOT of sleeping in cute poses, easily filling up phones. And when they are not sleeping, they are zooming balls of fluffy chaos youāre lucky to catch on video. In the best way.
A wise guide in another adorable fluffy body.
While their foster home has 6 resident cats, there is another furry soul waiting to find her forever home; Olive. Sweet Olive has been in their care for about 8 months at the time of this writing. And thankfully, she has taken up the role of helper to ease tiny Cheeto into his cattiness. Not only will this help Cheeto acclimate to having other felines around, heāll learn boundaries that a āsingleton kittenā may not.
Sharing is caring
Cheeto has been struggling a bit with his appetite but is doing much better now. Poor little guy has been lonely, so he now has time to run around with Olive before mealtime. He eats so much better when heās not alone and can see us and our other cats. Heās so sweet and doesnāt even mind sharing a few bites with Olive.
With each post about Cheetoās milestones and daily updates, itās easier and easier to fall in love with the little nugget. I meanā¦look at that belly!!!
And you KNOW if you have cats of any age, your phone is full of cute photos of them sleeping.
Also photos and videos of them in their ānot perfectā moments, sharing their sass out loud. But itās the kind of sass in Cheetoās case that makes him even cuter. Sorry ferocious beast!
We cannot wait for the updates on this teeny, brave soul. Be sure to follow him on Instagram for all the heartwarming hairdoās you could imagine!
