Fluffy

**Fluffy** was a French cat that's owned by Snow. He only appeared in the flashback in *A Turtle's Tale: Sammy's Adventures*.

## Appearance

Fluffy is a gray cat with white whiskers and green eyes.

## Personality

Fluffy is a sly and cunning cat who is the faithful companion of a small hippie community that cares about the environment and fights for animal rights. After he was rescued by them in May 1968, Fluffy is very fond of his owners that he can easily get jealous if Snow rescued another animal to be his companion, wanting to preserve his territory and the rights he has secured from his masters. Although later in life, Fluffy seems to let go out of jealousy ever since his owners found an animal rescue center after they're all evicted from a Californian beach and he becomes much friendlier and helpful to other animals than he was in the past.

## Relationships

### Sammy

In around 1969, Fluffy's owners rescued Sammy after he was washed up on the shore of a Californian beach and they took him in as a pet. Upon meeting Sammy after he wakes up, Fluffy is resentful of him gaining attention from Snow and treating the turtle with hospitality. Wanting to get rid of Sammy, Fluffy lies to him that the hippies are going to serve him into turtle soup once they fatten him up and he even made up a "chicken story" to prove his point so he could scare him off, but Sammy doesn't believe in his lie since he finds that Snow and the hippies are all very nice to him and they're trying to nurse him back to health.

But despite Fluffy's jealousy, he somewhat sees Sammy as a friend since he explains to him that there are more oceans in the world than what he once thought and tells him that he and the hippies have been travel the world all the time ever since Fluffy was rescued by them. When Sammy and Vera both celebrated their first Christmas, Fluffy, who initially warned Sammy that he's been marked, explains to the turtle the meaning of the peace sign and why Snow painted it on his shell as a present for him.

When the hippie community is being evicted by the police and Sammy doesn't understand what's going on, Fluffy tricked him into staying where he is and they'll come back for him in the future. Sammy fell for his trickery and he got left behind that Fluffy is full of relief that he is no longer a part of Snow's life that he happily waves goodbye to the turtle when the van is driven away from the beach.

Later in life, Fluffy meets Sammy again when the turtle is sent to the Monterey Animal Rescue Center after he was rescued by the Greenpeace workers at Antarctica while searching for Shelly. There, Fluffy apologizes to Sammy for wanting to get rid of him at the beach all those years ago and he's willing to help him escape from his pen so he could reunite with Shelly before she is released back into the ocean by the rescuers. He is even impressed that Sammy has indeed traveled around the world and he admits to him that he did miss having Sammy around whenever Snow is reading her books to him.

### Vera

Fluffy and Vera have a rather neutral relationship after Snow adopted her as a pet in the hope Sammy and Vera would mate so she could have more sea turtles. Just like with Sammy, Fluffy is also jealous of Vera during her stay and warns her to stay away from his owners as well as told her about the "chicken story".

## Trivia

* In the original French version, his name is **Alphonse**.
* In the Dutch version, his name is translated to **Pluisje**.
* According to Fluffy, Snow rescued him from the Seine in Paris in May 1968. And since Fluffy is from Paris, he speaks with a noticeable French accent.
* Because of the lifespan of a cat is estimated to be less than twenty years as well as Sammy currently over the age of fifty after 2009, it's likely Fluffy is deceased.
* It's unknown if Fluffy knew Sammy's name.
