Why So Grumpy, Charlene?

DSC_1024
This is the first time, in a long time, we've been kitten free. Pooooooooor little Butterbean has no one to play with.

Don't worry Charlene, they are on their way.

While we wait.. I'll share with you some never before seen shots from the Pettibone archives...

  2. Dear Butterbean...there are plenty of playmates to choose from! I'm sure you'll have some soon :o) Thank you for being such a good mama to the babies.

  3. These are, as always, so very beautiful! Now I think the only way to deal with the Pettibones is to make a huge book of them. It may be the one that Dale-Harriet and I agreed we'd pay $800 for, and that's OK, in spite of the economy. Beautiful pictures of Pettibones to pour over is the solution to all things difficult!

    raises head long enough to say, "Don't worry, Charlene, there will be more IBKs."

  6. Poor Miss Butterbean! I'll send my kitties over to play. Love this last litter; they were soooo awesome. But, aren't they all?

    Purry hugs, Robin

  10. We've dubbed that look on Agnes's face as her "Crazy Eyes".

    Amazing photos!

    I'm excited to see the next round of Itty Bitty Kitties, as I'm sure Charlene is.

  11. I don't know how you will pick just 6 for cards-but we are very patiently waiting to see what you choose - ok not patiently - but excited!

  12. Have you ever considered keeping a kitten as a permanent companion for Ms. Butterbean?

  13. Poor dear Charlene looks as though she's ready to blow a gasket. This look is the feline equivalent to a human standing with hands on hips, quickly tapping a foot, looking repeatedly at her wristwatch and saying, "Enough already! I'm ready for my next trainees."

    Darling Butterbean, take this opportunity to regroup, rest up and gather the strength you're going to need when the next kitten-storm hits. The wisest caregivers take care of themselves, too. You are so, so precious to your scads of loyal admirers.

  14. She doesn't look grumpy to me, she looks sturdy, resolute and beaming with expectation for the next set of ittybittys.

  15. Could that Butterbean be any more beautiful. I think not!

    She is giving her Empress Queen of the Universe Look, demanding more babies, isn't she?

    She's a peach!
