Long Void His legs are just ridiculously long.

I thought maybe it was just in my head, but my in-laws are visiting and all they can talk about is how long his legs are, lol.

He certainly is! He’s still a kitten and got the klutz factor, so sometimes his front legs go at different speeds than his back legs and it’s hilarious.

Every time I look at him I just see one of those maned wolves.

I really should have named him Calcifer, it was on the list.

What an elegant gentleman! 😻

He’s not even a gentleman yet, he’s only 9 months old!! I shudder to think how much longer his legs will get. He already weighs 11.8lbs.

I have two (female) Main Coone cats, one of which has 19.8lbs. Weight does not come from long elegant legs though (she is by no means fat but very sturdy).

Yeah he’s very thin, just BIG. We have three other cats and he’s the size of the biggest one, who is a pretty damn big cat. Not Maine Coon size, he’s just a tabby, but he’s a big enough cat that people say, “Wow, that’s a big cat.” when they see him. And now the kitten is as tall as him.

I must be feeding these little gremlins pretty well or something. The smallest cat we have is the girl, and she’s just a normal sized fluff monster at 11lbs. She looks small compared to all her brothers tho. I cat sat for the neighbor the other day who have two cats and I couldn’t get over how small the looked to me, lol. I asked my husband if he thought one of them was a runt or something and he was like, “No, she’s a normal sized cat, our cats are just all monsters.”.
