Following their reunion at the award show and her presentation, Curtis, 63, left the Dolby Theatre to head home, she noted in her own Instagram post, sharing the “MAGICAL ending to the story.” But on her way, the Freaky Friday alum recalled, she was texted a photo of Travolta holding Mac & Cheese in the green room backstage.

“I thought it was so beautiful to see him with her and then today I found out that he and his son, Ben have adopted beautiful little mac & cheese and are taking her home today,” Curtis added. “It is an emotional end and a perfect tribute to Betty White and it shines a light and AMPLIFIES the message that heroes who, like Betty, and Chad from @pawworks and Nancy from @perfect_pet_rescue and the team at @maedayrescue and the hundreds of thousands of other rescues, who love and support ANIMALS, that rescuing animals and offering them shelter from the storm of life and a warm and loving home is one of life’s most important actions we humans can take! #adoptdontshop.”
