这只26磅重的流浪猫在收容所找到了新家
When 2-year-old Mr. B arrived at Morris Animal Refuge in Philadelphia, the rescue posted some amazing photos of the 26-pound kitty that captured the attention of newfound fans all over the world.
当2岁的B先生到达费城莫里斯动物保护区时，救援人员贴出了这只26磅重的小猫的一些惊人照片，引起了全世界新粉丝的注意。
"OMG, big boi Mr. B is a CHONK. He's a chonk of a chonk. He redefines the term," the rescue wrote on Facebook. "Can you guess how much he weighs? More importantly, can you give him a home? Adopt this jumbo-sized package of fluff & love, and help this sad-eyed guy find happiness!"
“天哪，大个子B先生是个软骨头。它是个软骨头中的软骨头。它重新定义了这个词。”“你能猜到它有多重吗?”更重要的是，你能给它一个家吗?接受这个巨大的毛绒和爱的包裹，帮助这个悲伤的家伙找到幸福!”

People were smitten with the tabby, whose full name is Beejay, and immediately began applying to adopt him. More than 3,000 cat lovers submitted applications to the refuge to adopt the "big-boned" cat.
人们被这只全名叫Beejay的虎斑猫迷住了，立刻开始申请收养它。3000多名爱猫人士向该收容所提交了领养这只“大骨架”猫的申请。
Even the Philadelphia Police Department weighed in.
甚至费城警察局也参与进来。
"Um, if he doesn't get adopted (highly unlikely) he's welcome to join our K9 Unit as its first Feline (he IS a cat, right?!) member," they tweeted.
他们在推特上写道:“嗯，如果它没有被收养(可能性很小)，我们欢迎它加入我们的K9小组，成为第一个猫科动物成员(它是一只猫，对吧?!)。”
Making a forever home
永远的家

After sifting through the piles of suitors, the refuge found a perfect fit. They placed the hefty Mr. B with a foster family who hopes to adopt the kitty if he likes them and they like him. The foster family has experience working with cats that have behavioral and medical issues like Mr. B's, so they should be a great match.
在筛选了一大堆申请者之后，收容所为它找到了一个完美的伴侣。他们把身材魁梧的B先生介绍给一个寄养家庭，如果B先生喜欢他们，他们也喜欢它，他们就希望收养这只小猫。寄养家庭有处理像B先生这样有行为和医疗问题的猫的经验，所以他们应该是很好的一对。
"This family hasn't just dealt with these issues in other cats, they have embraced them," the refuge said.
“这个家庭不仅处理了其他猫的这些问题，他们还接受了这些问题，”收容所说。
"We will continue to work with this foster family to help them work through Mr. B's issues. While the goal is to make this Mr. B's forever home, the family will be able to provide him with a safe and comfortable environment while we learn more about him and his needs."
“我们将继续与这个寄养家庭合作，帮助他们解决B先生的问题。我们的目标是让这里永远成为B先生的家，在我们更多地了解它和它的需求的同时，它的家人将能够为它提供一个安全舒适的环境。”
And for disappointed applicants and eager fans who just love him, the refuge has a T-shirt fundraiser featuring his engaging image.
对于那些失望的申请者和只爱它的狂热粉丝来说，收容所有一场t恤募捐活动，以它迷人的形象为特色。
We hope to hear more — and see less — of you soon, Mr. B.
B先生，我们希望不久能更多地听到您的消息，更少地见到您。
