Thread: Starting to look more mature at 2 yrs

He is lovely & I reckon he will get a lot more sterner looking yet but I think its great fun when they have the mean look that frighten people until they realise underneath is a great big softie.... His smoke colours are just so strong luv him...x

Funny you should say that Jackie. A friend of ours who’s had MCs for much longer than we, said when he saw El Monto as a kitten: “That cat is going to frighten the sh!t out of people when he grows up.” At the time I didn’t believe him, but now I am inclined to think he might be right.

Monto is starting to remind me of his half-sister Macy (who is little Minnie’s mum). She is a black smoke too and has the face of a really vicious alleycat, lol. She’s had an amazing show career… took her less than a year to become a GIC. I think she simply scared the judges into awarding her all the prizes.

Yeah they're really scary until they open the mouth and a tiny chirp comes out.
I love the picture of Monty with the glowing eyes, I bet he's just a big Teddy Bear.

Hehe... at our place the chirps are more the girls' department. El Monto sounds either like a cooing pigeon or like a quacking duck, depending on what he's trying to say.
And you're right... despite the glowing eyes and evil grin he is a great big lovable wuss.

i just had to say hes stunning, what colour is he? wha a beautiful boy! x

Thank you. He's black smoke.
