    Why you shouldn't feed cats table scraps :)

    Sorry if this is a duplicate.

    This was sent to me and caught my eye. I can't remember if I have seen it on PT or not.

    However for those who want a big kitty.....

    Gee Bryan, that either a very huge cat, or a very tiny woman! I think, I KNOW I would hate to haul that bootie around.

    What a cat!!

    Thank You, kittycats_delight for my new siggy!!!

    One day I have seen a Maine Coon in a show like that. He was more than 30 lb and NOT FAT! He was the hugest cat I've ever seen and very handsome. But I definitely prefer a smaller one under my cover

    What a huge cat!! It's a little difficult to tell if it's fat or just big. In any case, it's not the kind of cat I'd choose.

    I guess many feed their cats far too much - if they're bored, they'll just eat ( a bit like some humans. ) I'm amazed how little a cat can survive on - not that I starve Fister!! I believe they'll keep healthier if they're slim and they also tend to be more active.

    CCL - there is a picture you posted quite awhile ago - it was my first glimpse of PB - you were standing at the back door and getting a hug from him and I remember telling my husband that is the biggest and most gorgeous cat I have ever seen!!! Either that, or you are very small!

    Mishi! Get back here! How did he escape to have that picture taken with that other woman! I MUST get a friend to take a pic of me and Mishi - I'm a petite 5' and Mishi looks almost that big in my arms. What an armload of fluffy Maine Coon love!

    Can you imagine waking up to that kitty sleeping on your chest?????
    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand and strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming WOO HOO - What a Ride!
