Butterz iz fa-mouse


Butters is going to be famous! Well, as famous as a picture like this among thousands like it can be. Isn't he cute? Becca Sue showed me and several others at our Inkling House dinner a website where people have sent funny pix of their cats making weird faces or in weird positions. In this shot it looks like he's got a bit of a go-tee -- he really has an outbreak of kitty-acne -- who knew cats got zits.

I have some better shots of Butters at home-- like when I was trying to toilet train him. :)

He's four years old now! Such a big guy- but not fat. Some of the cats on this website are just grotesque. Butters really is just fluffy - ask my sister. She brushed him for almost two hours last weekend, filling up four brushes full of hair and half a garbage can. That was after a bath that plugged up our tub because of all of his hair. What do you guys think of shaving him? I've never done it because I heard it can mess them up, but I'm getting sorely tempted these days.

Butters has adjusted well to Tre. Tre, of course, has bought him all sorts of little toys to make their bonding sure. My sister even bought him some Organic catnip -- all she got for her troubles was a scratch on her hand and a hyper Butters with eyes as big as saucers.

All in all - Butters is adjusting from his nearly month long abandonment of him -from June 20th to July 14th. He began talking to himself - Lisa claims he'd sit on the porch in front of our house and make all sorts of kitty comments back and forth. He's a long way now from his near break-down. He and Tre are buds and we're all adjusting to life in our new house. We've definately decided to wait at least until spring for a puppy.
