I had a Maine Coon that weighed 24 lbs in his prime and the vet also said there wasn't an ounce of fat on him. I still feel lost without him as his kidneys shut down when he was 16 years old.

I think his belly is so big he sorta just flops over to sleep :D:D
We also have his Mom, Katie, and she is tiny! 7 pounds and all her body parts are miniature- they look so cute together :D

Wonderful... all the kitties (and dogs too) are wonderful. They add so much to our lives. I esp. love this picture. I am partial to orange tabby boys... had several. Right now, I have an orange and white senior kitty, who's favorite pasttime is to demand 'lap time' from me.

Thanks for the nice post about my big boy. We figure he HAS to be big b/c he has such a huge heart that needs to fit in his body!! He is sooooo lovable- very affectionate, not only with us, but all the other cats. I could brag all night about my furbabies and love seeing everyone else's!! I love them all :D

My Aunt had a cat that would ask you if she could drink your tea, or coffee; then she would dip her paw in the drink and lick off her paw until the drink was gone, then she would say thank you and walk away.

It must be working b/c he did lose that weight in 2 months. Angie learned to climb a ladder when we were painting. of course she couldn't get down so we had to make sure to put it down when we left the house. Fun times. We also have a water fountain for them and they drink a lot more water that way. Had one before that drank out of the bathroom faucet. rocky also lays on his back with his belly in the air. we have a picture of him sleeping that way before we even got him. Do you suppose it takes the weight off his tummy?

Beautiful babies!!! :thumbup: :thumbup: :lol:

I have 10 cats at my home and all but 1 Likes to drink out of the toilet bowl, If I have to go its a race to see who can get there first. NOt me thats for sure since I only have 2 legs and they have 4. Luckily my Chihuahuas are too short to reach other wise I'd really be in trouble. They also want to get in the shower too, DH has to chase them out of the bathroom before anything can happen for him. lol
