Name: Coach Tubby

Position / Style: Cunning

Nickname: “Mr. Smarty Cats”

Goal: To scratch out a victory.

Favorite Football Movie: “The Longest Yarn”

Quote: “Does this collar make me look…(?)”

Our first star of the Kitten Bowl is our head coach, Coach Tubby. As you can see, he maintains an excellent sense of humor and will likely do anything he can to lead his team to victory. When he’s not watching The Longest Yarn, he’s studying old tapes, deflating footballs, and helping his star player, Tom Bratty Cat, win the Kitten Bowl. This year, it’s a four-way race between all the All-Star teams, but Coach Tubby hopes he has an advantage because of his sweet mustache!

Here’s our first player of the night — Daisy. As you can see she’s one of the premiere players of the leg. She’s the “Beast of Hurtin” and isn’t afraid to show it. Additionally, she spins good yarn, and she’s really excited for the next season of House of Yarns, which stars her favorite actor, Kitten Spacey. When this kitten isn’t tearing up the field, she’s thinking about all the ways adoption helps save kitten lives!
