On
this season of The Real HouseCats of South Carolina, we will meet six cats living out their
nine lives in the deep south. Even though they come from long lines of southern aristocracy, don’t expect to see
purrfect behavior. There will be relationships ruined, weight gained, rivalries
renewed, and unfortunately, a loss that impacts the whole group. Come take a
visual walk with me while you meet these six CATches and how they find love,
loss, and some purrfect memories.
Buster:
Life in South Carolina is a game, and I make the rules.
Being the self-proclaimed
leader in the group, Buster rules the town with an iron paw. His bird watching and hunting business has taken off with the help of Louis, and they've just begun to roll in the tuna. He has made the journey to the top of the game, but you don't get to the top without a few enemies. Grits is his nephew, Binky and Rusty his sisters, Gracie his arch nemesis, and
Louis his dear business partner. With his rich timber voice narrating the
series, the audience will see how living and working with family is not all
that it’s cracked up to be especially when you add in a minx by the name of
Gracie. She’s burned his advances before but will he give up? We’ll find out
this season!
Grits:
I'm a model, but not
always a model citizen
Grits is the resident bad
boy. The youngest of the cast, he makes his presence no secret. Grits has just
discovered the outdoors and has been running rampant ever since. Dogs are no
match for him and rabbits don’t stand a chance. If you've got it, he wants it. Helped out by mother who can't say no, he has funds to last him until the end of time. Grits doesn't believe in a job that starts at 9 and goes to 5, those are for the poor people. His job requires spice, pizazz, and of course, controversy. He’s begun to start a catpaign
to become the new leading man in South Carolina but he’ll certainly face adversity.
He must overcome the siblings to best Buster. Will he be successful? Here’s a preview of what’s to come!
Oreo Binky:
Life is short, I have no
time for drama.
Oreo Binky, Binky for
those who are in the inner circle, is Buster’s beloved sister. They’ve been separated since 8 weeks old,
but after finding each other on catbook they’ve been catcalling every week.
Binky is the one that introduced Buster and Louis and their business relationship
has profited ever since. She had enough of the rat race and came home to purr and make cat baskets for her friends. A simple life maybe, but if the kitten mitten fits...Unfortunately, Binky will have a tough time this season, but
surrounded by the love of her family (human and cat), she will claw her way to the top.
Rusty:
People
may think they have me figured out, but I am always a wild card.
Rusty,
the other sister to Buster, begins and ends the day with a prayer, but don’t
take her Christian spirit for weakness. She runs one of the most profitable
Catnip stations in South Carolina. A controversial business for sure, but she’s
packing heat and isn’t afraid to fire off warning shots. The motto of her shop? "Take my Catnip and get a Fatlip." Her relationship with
her sister is strong as ever and Binky will need it this season. Her
relationship with Buster? Well… let’s just say he doesn’t approve of the Catnip business and makes it no secret. Will they be able to share the milk bowl
again?
Gracie:
Am
I high maintenance? Of course I am, look at me.
Gracie
made her debut in 2002 and hasn’t looked back since. Coming from meager
beginnings, she’s made a name and a fortune for herself. She’s a strong woman
that knows what she wants and how to get it whether it’s the food bowl or the
tomcat. Her relationship with Buster is tumultuous mainly because she knows
about all the side cats he keeps company with on the weekends. If you think
hurricanes are rough on South Carolina, you’ve never seen Gracie’s wrath. Will
she be able to tame the biggest tomcat or will she find love in a different
tom?
Louis:
Haters are gonna
hate, but I just love, love, love
Louis was this groups moral compass and the steady head to bring them together in the most heated of circumstances. Unfortunately you are reading the past tense of that statement. He died surrounded by those whom loved him. Speaking as the producer of this show, he was a marvelous cat who always had a twinkle in his eye. There was never an instance when I , or anyone else, entered the room where he didn't immediately speak to say hello. His home was your home. He was the best friend to Binky and her grieving process will be hard, but she's a fighter. Buster will have to learn to run the business without Louis' deft touch. Louis was a big cat (check out those paws!) and his presence will be sorely missed in his household. The next cat will have big paws to fill. Rest In Peace Louis, and we'll see you again.
