I can't wait til my hubby gets home to see your baby. He will flip!! What a beautiful face kitty has!! :D
He looks a lot like our cat Fluffles, who was Main Coon, big, but nowhere as big. Love his coloring, Carmello is more stripey.

Wow he is a big boy! Is he Maine Coon? I know Maine Coon males can get that big. He is beautiful and so laid-back to sit on you like that!

Finnegan sure is a beautiful boy! He's NOT fat, he's big boned!!

He is big boned and FAT. :lol: :lol: We had him on a diet a while bag and got him pared down to a svelte 21 lbs but he was still big, just didn't have that belly fat like now. I try to limit his food but with 5 cats it's pretty hard. He doesn't jump too well but still manages to get up on the table where the other cats food is so he doesn't whither away to nothing or at least that is his opinion.

I have the same problem, b/c we have 5 cats also and he's the only porker. The rest, including his Mom, are tiny!! :D

Wow. Pic made me curse in exclamation. Looks like he ate a kindergartener. He's beautiful but keep small children out of his reach.

Yes he is a Maine Coon. I got him from a breeder out near Boston. In my avatar he is still a kitten at 5 months old.

He is really laid back with DH and me but when visitors come he is a big ol scaredy cat and can't get out of his own way fast enough to run away and hide. He is fine when my brother comes to visit and stays for a while. After a few hours he comes out of hiding and within 24 hours he is trying to sprawl out on my brother as well. When he purrs you can hear him in the next room.

My Himalayan weighs about that also, just nothing but a big fat baby..but I gotta love him. Love when people come to the house and tell me they have never seen a cat that big.LOL!! Yours is beautiful!!

He is a big boy!! He looks so mellow!! The big ones are always the ones who want to be in your lap all the time too.
When my cat Chester was here(a 20#furbaby)He was always jumping in my lap.
I can imagine another 10# would be hot and heavy! :-D
