    PBPB is a big fuzzball barn kitten. He was one of my fosters and was adopted out a couple months ago. His favorite activities include looking cute and being groomed by his friend Oscar. He also enjoys dangling strings and a warm lap.

    That’s a very fuzzy kitty! Almost looks like a toy or something. Or one of those realistic pet statues that some stores sell.

    What does PB stand for? Peanut Butter? Phuzz Ball? Peter Brady?

    The following is a really sweet (and funny!) article…..

    *Free kitten*
    “Free kitten. Cute, cuddly, irresistible.”

    That’s how the ad read. What I didn’t know is that “free kitten” is one of those oxymoronic things like “working vacation” or “Microsoft Works.”
    During that first trip to Petco, I discovered that my free cat would require, among other things: box, litter, scooper, liner, cover, filters, and designated dust-vac; wet food, dry food, nibble treats, bowls, and specially formulated kitten milk; no-scratch spray for the couch and do-scratch spray for the scratch post; scratch post; collar; I.D. tag; chew toys; flea comb; shampoo; cat bed; spray bottle; lint roller; jungle gym; immunity shots; and if you know what’s good for you, pet insurance.
    It doesn’t help that cats are anti-establishment. You buy tuna; they want chicken. Open a door; they use the window. I bought for our kitten, Homer, a twenty-dollar teaser wand and he spent the night playing with its wrapper. So it goes.
    I can already hear my grandpa nagging: “All this money on cat toys. When I was young, we just tied strings to dead mice…”
    Add to the receipt a handful of new books, not to read but to throw at Homer when he starts doing wheelies at three in the morning. Cats are “nocturnal,” which comes from Old French noc, meaning “at night,” and turnal, meaning “drives your master to drink.”
    Homer is exploring our house like The Tasmanian Devil, leaving holes to mark his path. He has taken out flower vases, photo albums, important-looking documents, and one archrival teddy bear … gutted.
    That’s why Nature made kittens so adorable — so we don’t murder them when they swing from the curtains like James Bond.
    Homer assaults anything that twitches, blinks, or God help you, makes a scratching noise. He doesn’t understand motion that isn’t directly related to the game of Hunt and Chase. To this day he thinks I make the bed for his personal amusement.
    It was a dark day when Homer realized that all the time he spent sleeping on the entertainment center, we weren’t worshipping him at all: We were simply watching TV.
    Experts say that our kitten is “exploring his boundaries,” but I believe he’s possessed by Satan (one more cost: exorcism). I used to be a lighthearted bloke with chirpy words for everyone. Now I start the day saying “No!” and chase my orange son around the house with a spray bottle. “Stop it, stop it, stop it!” Some people think it’s cruel to spray your cat like this, but I use bottled water.
    In fact, I think we should adopt this technology for humans. If someone, for instance, can’t stop clearing his throat over the course of a six-hour plane ride, you just squirt him in the forehead. Sure, he’ll be annoyed, but he’ll learn.
    Almost forgot anti-bacterial ointment. Homer weighs only three pounds, but ninety percent of that weight is teeth and claws. If you feed kittens after midnight, they will, like Gremlins, turn into crazed monsters and gain enough centrifugal force to leave skid marks on your headboard. Homer races back and forth like fifteen animals suffering from OCD (overactive cat disorder). I’m sure Petco sells the medication.
    But eventually the little guy tuckers out and curls into a lump between your legs; and as he snores there like a little party favor, your heart turns to butter and, just as Nature intended, you forgive. Worse, you come to see the wisdom in low-fat, vitamin-enriched, plaque-control kitten nibbles.
    Despite his wake of destruction, I find myself asking, “How can I improve this cat’s life?” Now that Homer has finished discovering The Inside, he gazes sadly out the window wondering what the rest of the world tastes like.
    Maybe he just needs a playmate. Would you know that I just saw an ad for free kittens…

    Oh so true! I have been a recipient of a free bird and four free kittens thankfully at different times. Sometimes I think I have sucker tatoooed on my forehead but I loved them all.
    Thank you for a cute story again Dee.

    You are very lucky to have a
    kitten exactly like PB. If I
    had been PB’s foster daddy,
    he would have never left my
    home. He is absolutely gorgeous.
    Take the best of care of your
    kitten and I feel sure that you
    will.

    PB you are delicious!

    Came across the following I wanted to share with you all:

    Stray Cat

    Oh what unhappy twist of fate has brought you,
    homeless to my gate?
    The gate where once another stood to beg
    for shelter, warmth and food
    For from that day,
    I ceased to be the master of my destiny.
    While he, with purr and velvet paw
    became within my house, The Law.
    He scratched the furniture and shed,
    and claimed the middle of my bed.
    He ruled in arrogance and pride,
    and broke the heart the day he died.
    So if you really think, oh cat, I’d willingly relive all that
    because you come, forlorn and thin,
    Well…don’t just stand there, come on in!
    (Francis Witham)

    PB is SO cute! I haven’t been to the Daily Kitten in a while. My sister, Jude, just had triplets almost a week ago!!! I’ve been helping her take care of them, because her husband, Marc, is in Iraq right now. They have red hair and blue eyes. Their names are Leslie, Jennifer, and Jacob. Her three-year-old son Todd has been in the hospital with cancer, so we took the expanded family to visit him. My sister and I are there every night, and we’re there holding his hand everytime he has surgery. I myself am going to have a baby girl in six months. I hyave but three favors to ask the FUZz family: Pray for Todd, Pray for Marc, and help me by giving girl names for the baby. God bless us all!

    Rose,
    I will pray for Todd & Marc. My brother is over seas also. As for the baby, what about Sasha, Kelsey, Kate, Kailey, Korina, Megan, Sarah, Julia, Nicole, Amanda, Rachel, April, June, May, (any other month), Daphne, Carla, Rachelle (Ra-shell), or Sadie? Does this help? ;)

    Prayers for Todd & Marc are being said at this moment! Congratulations on the triplets & your new baby. Remember to take care of yourself too! As for names, since your name is Rose, how about another flower? My daughters are Tatum Alana & Sloane Ezell (Ezell is our wonderful family physician & friend’s last name). We wanted to give our girls different, but not weird, names. Tatum was a name we loved & Sloane is named for Sloane Square in London, one of our favorite places. Anyway…all of you take care!

    Ben: How are your children doing? Hopefully, you are all having the time of your lives! Aren’t children such a blessing? Keep in mind that the Fuzz Family can & will help with any questions you have about …well, just about anything! :)

    I just have to add that the placement of one front paw slightly behind the other quadruples the cuteness factor. It just does.
