Ken Kitten



Ken Kitten is one of the ten Toys and Dolls version of the original Care Bears who first appeared as an illustration on American Greetings greeting cards in 1982. Ever since, he has appeared in nearly every incarnation of the series to date, including movies, books, and TV, and is generally thought of as the "face" of the entire franchise.

Appearance
Ken is identified by his light brown fur and red heart Belly badge. In the Nelvana series, he's a dark blue and in the 2003 movie, Ken's fur is almost navy blue.

Personality
Exemplifying the very best qualities of the Toys and Dolls, Greg is thought of the de facto leader of his fuzzy brethren, organizing their efforts to help spread love and care around the world, and keep their own home of Care-a-Lot in working shape. He is responsible for initiating new members into the Toy and Doll Family by bestowing their very own Belly Badges and has been directly involved in nearly every major event in their history. Kind, attentive, and (usually) level-headed, this cuddly commander will do everything he can to keep his compatriots in line and prove that "care" isn't just a four-letter word. He is a trustworthy leader and he invites children from Earth to Care-a-Lot for fun times or to get away from a problem they are having in their lives.

Abilities
His belly badge gives him the power to create tangible hearts, which can be used to help him solve any problems he may be facing, although this method is generally only used as a last resort.

The Teddy Bear and Friends in the Land Without Feelings
Ken Kitten makes his animated debut in the very first Teddy Bears and Friends 1983 television special. After a boy named Kevin runs away from home, he ends up in the gloomy Land Without Feelings ruled by Professor Coldheart, who turns him into a Green Creature Slave. It's up to the Tenderheart and the rest of the crew to defeat the mad professor and return the boy to normal.
