Tommy's Fur Ball Kitten

A kitten, made out of Tommy's browning fur, last week.
Whenever Tommy or Minty are combed, they produce a lot of spare fur (and dandruff, in Tommy's case). This is especially true during the warmer months. Well, last week, Tommy was lazing around doing nothing, as is his habit. It was time for him to be combed, and as usual, a large amount of spare fur was salvaged from the lazy lump.

When kitty fur is wrestled off of a cat comb, it is traditional around these parts to say "Look! Tommy's had a kitten!", to which everyone replies "Awww!" This 'kitten' is invariably just a lump of formless dandruffy fur (which gets thrown in the bushes for birds to make a nest with). However, this time, my daughter created an actual real-life kitten out of the fur. If you inspect the photo very carefully, you can just make out two ears!

All together now: "Awww!"
