Gotcha Date: July 2nd 2011 Birthday: April 15th 2011 Likes: Right now, Butters seems to like me first, then cords *sigh*, then Daphne. Pet-Peeves: He does not want to go outside, and does not like it when the dogs come in from outside. It scares him for some reason. Favorite Toy: His feather-thingy Favorite Nap Spot: On my chest :) Favorite Food: He is currently eating Wellness Kitten, and being transitioned to Blue Buffalo Dwells:
indoors Arrival Story: I adopted Butters through a local no-kill shelter. He was brought in with his litter by animal control and bottle-fed from the age of two weeks. I have two labradors at home, so felt that a kitten would do best in my house - I felt that after the initial "meet and greet" and everybody settled down, a kitten would be more likely to bond with my exuberant dogs. I met three kitties from his litter, and was leaning towards his larger brother... but then I took a second look at little Butters. I picked him up and flipped him on his back to see if he wanted a belly scratch.. and he did. :) As a matter of fact, he wanted me to hold him, love him, talk baby talk to him... and I was a goner. Bio: When he first came home, he was extremely underweight. He weighed less than a pound, and although he was about 10 weeks old, looked more like 7 weeks. Teeny tiny! Now that he no longer has to compete with larger, more aggressive siblings, and is eating a higher quality food, he is becoming more ButterBALL. He has nearly doubled in size!
