Furball Bill

ARF announces a new production: “Like catnip through the hourglass, so are the days of our nine lives.”

Furball Bill:    (Talking with Rey and Chewy, trying to not smile.)  Kids, kids, kids!  Do you ever get tired?

Chewy: (Bouncing around.)  Aw, come on, Bill!  You know we love to play with you!  And we really like it when you run through the cattery with us!

Rey:  (Approaches Bill).  Please, Bill!  Chewy and I are just kittens.  We need to play, and you are so nice to us. (Bobbie enters the room. Chewy &

Bobbie:  (Hisses just a little.)  Enough!  You know this running around makes me crazy!  I guess I’ll just have to live with it until I am adopted and can be the queen of my own castle; a castle with no other cats!!  (Bobbie scans the room and is delighted when she sees a human entering. She saunters to the human, rubbing against his leg.)

Rey: (To Chewy), Darn it!  She got to him first.  Guess I’ll just have to turn on my kitten charm.

Chewy:  Yeah, but look at Bill.  He took off.  Guess this human will just have to take a seat and give him some time.  But you know, he’ll eventually warm up to him.

Bobbie:  (Weaving in and out of the man’s legs, purring and glancing up to make eye contact.) Watch this, kids.  This is how you find your way into a forever home.

Chewy: Well, step aside and give me a chance!

Bobbie: (Turning to face Chewy and Rey.)  Step aside?  (Sadie enters room.) Sadie?  Not you!  (Aside to camera.)  Sadie has been trying to steal my

thunder for weeks now.  Just watch. She’ll try to purr her way into this guy’s heart!  She’s good at it. (Cue orchestra: daunting, cliff-hanger music.)

Join us next week to see if Sadie is able to lure the man away from Bobbie.
