Thread: New Longest Cat

I know what you mean. My two have just turned one year old and they look normal to me, but compared to other cats they are giants.
If I remember rightly MCs continue to grow for the first three years?

We were just reading the feeding instructions on the back of a food pouch: "2 to 3 pouches should be sufficient for the average 3kg cat...."

Hmmm, had our 6 month MC kitten, Tilly weighed at the vets last night. 3.3Kg!!

It’s the same here with us, they look normal until you see another cat next to them.

What a beautiful cat!

He is a lovely colour - what colour is that? Doesn't look amazingly long though really does he? When it says from tip of nose to tip of tail bone is that the end of the tail or the top of the tail? It doesn't look a very acurate way of measuring to me.

Looks like a silver tabby to me. I assume they mean end of tail, they just said tail bone so that people know it isn't to the end of the hair on the tail. I agree it seems a very inaccurate way to measure but not sure of an alternative.

Wowsers! Now that is a big kitty!

Yes I saw that piece about Stewie the longest cat. Tried to measure Laggs last night whilst he was dozing in a long line, but unfortunately OH 'pinged' the tape measure and Laggs jumped out of his skin! and we all fell about laughing, poor Lagg!! Eight months old this very day and looking huge.
