Butterscotch does not like being outside, evidently.

He likes being outside, he frequently paws at the door. What he may take issue with, however, is being far away from the house. Our other car is like that too.

Must be hell driving further than a few blocks :downsrim:

"Hitler" went right into the dry food without issue. Blackistan and the others were more interested in seeking attention. Runty urinated on his own, then sat in it.

We'll make some weight gain mix when we can get more supplies tomorrow!

Will continue to watch for a possible mama cat and additional kittens. 4 is a good litter size, though, so I'm not expecting to find others.

Thanks for all the help and tips, thread.

Plz suggest better names, tia.

We went to the vet. Butters was thrilled!

See! Look how happy he is!

I've been reading about Butterscotch for a while, and been meaning to post this. My wife and I have Butterscotch's doppleganger.

His name is Charlie.

He shares many of Butters' personality traits.

For example, he loves to show his belly.

He loves blankets.

And he's good with technology.

Sometimes, though, Charlie likes to get dressed up when visitors come over.

Even though some visitors don't really like him.

So this is Charlie, a low-fat Butterscotch.

He doesn't have the same mournful thousand-yard-stare though :colbert:

This looks like the cover of an album from the 70's. "Kitten Time." or something. All it needs is a soft focus haze around the edges.

but do you make up a middle or last name when you are really super serious?

Butterscotch Fabio Emmanuel Esquire, first of his name.

Butterscotchatolia DeMontague Vivian Eduardio Bennet Esquire. The First.

When you gotta give them a big fancy name, the original name needs to be a nickname of something unnecessarily long in its own right :eng101:

The amount of Butter contained within this bag is truly staggering.

In order to carry him in this bag, you must have Understanding of your limits, Knowledge to control his bulk, Courage to show the world this unrelenting tide of butter, and the Diligence to persevere against this colossal challenge.

All these traits are necessary to master the Butterscotch Special Mega Carrying In Bag Challenge!

...You are unable to carry him in this bag in your current state.

No, no, no, that's wrong.

He needs Kindness make sure Monty isn't in there first, Knowledge to figure out how to climb inside, Proficiency to fit his Guts into the bag, and Charm to appeal to his personal human once inside.

Guppy is a hair shy of 2 pounds so he and Kraken are going to be looking at a Friday return to the SPCA. After Kraken's odd/semi-aggressive display last night I figured it may be worth tiring them out with the fishpole toy.

Turns out I was right. This litter just needs insane amounts of stimulation or they go bonkers. Even Guppy started losing his poo poo when I started playing with them.

I was with them for a few minutes before I realized I needed to do change things up. I looked down at my leg and saw that I was bleeding like crazy: Not gonna embed the picture in case people aren't interest in seeing chililegs, but for those who are curious this is the darkside of fostering kitties: http://imgur.com/yWVI7QS

Good morning from Butterland:

We have our yearly vet appointment this coming Tuesday. We'll get an official weigh in and health updates. Things are looking good!

You have no need of an alarm clock anyway; You have a very hungry cat who will wake you up on time, on the dot every morning, so he can get fed. NOW! :catbert:

That may very well happen. Kinda got my hands a little full at the moment. But hey if someone wants to be butterscotch's campaign manager, he is happy to repay you with buttery pictures.

Good luck with South!

Katdicks is in great health and so is baby. She was born huge and is putting on weight super fast!

I will not let this contest go uncontested! Share the pictures and I'll spruik for the glorious Butterscotch :patriot:

A little campaign/brag update.

Sometimes it takes making a video and seeing him through a screen to realize how much weight he's lost. Still so happy that he's a healthful bugger now and can continue to ruin our lives for more years to come.

Hey all, I know it's been a bit but we have some news!

So Butterscotch went to a different coworker than the first we tried who wasn't a good fit.

He ended up in a home with one of our good friends who had already adopted an obese cat that was on the way to losing weight. Pretty funny right?

Butterscotch is mentoring a big boy named Oreo. And, unlike his old brother, these two are getting along like total best buddies. Our friend said she got them two beds but that they insist on sleeping like this:

This is really awesome to see because even at their best, our boys never got along like this. We're so happy!

Don't forget to give them the Butterscotch twitter account :colbert:

Just out of curiosity, is around the point where they open their eyes when hand-raising kittens goes from "might not survive, despite your best efforts" to "probably gonna fine"?
