please forgive the crappy pic (flip phone). here is the belly of a 22 lb manx. the stripes mostly have appeared over this past year. could be he is younger than we thought and these are his adult colors . i wish i could measure his length but he is terrified of the yardstick or tape measure.
Use a shoe string and measure it. Of course you’re obligated to let the cat play with said string. Lol
he is not into coming at him with anything. i don’t know what type of interactions he has had with humans but we are being as positive as we can.he is a scaredy cat…which is funny because he can push me off a chair with his nose. strongest cat i have ever known. he is all muscle and pretty darn fast. runs up and down trees in the blink of an eye. which is something i have never seen a cat do (running face down a tree) and looks just like a bulldog when he stretches from the neck down.
he is one heck of a warm spot in the winter when he shares the bed at night.
even though i could use it, i wouldn’t take 5K for him.
That’s one cute beautiful looking feline. Looks like “bagpuss” a cat that was on UK children’s television in the 1970’s.
Rescued three black/white kittens, guessing approx. 10 weeks old. Thinking our neighbor threw them over our fence, knowing we are cat folks [he worked at golf course, his boss HATES cats, most likely attempted to poison them].
Brought them in the house - Biffie-Dondo-Spot . Biffie died within a week from convulsions , Dondo lived very happily for 4 years , and Spot … !!! Spot got along fine with his siblings and our couple other cats but we could never, never get near him , absolutely no touching , for NINE AND A HALF YEARS !!! Then, like flipping a switch, Spot jumped on my lap and could not get enough sugars from me, enough brushing, etc. He lived another couple of months and passed during the night.
Note: Once we bring in a rescue they are never allowed back outside.
Blessings you. I wish there were more people like you.
pennywise the cat
Mr. Meowgi, but my kids call him Rabbit. We got him yesterday. He’s still a little guy.
And Cosmo. We adopted him last September.
