I am glad I never met Lily's father; he might be rather frightening!

Friday Fat Cat Blogging
Lily has grown rather large, larger than Esther, larger than any cat Our House has ever had in residence...

ReplyDeleteabsolutely beautiful kittah odalisque!
ReplyDeletejams, mandt...
ReplyDeletejams - that there most certainly is!
mandt - Lily thanks you!
The good news is that she should stop growing soon.
ReplyDeleteThat picture of her stretching out on the sliding door was a hint at her size, and now she is adding the muscle.
Wait until she "fluffs" for the winter.
She has excellent markings, and might have a bit of Maine Coon in her genes that would easily account for the size.
She's is cute, but I have a feeling that a belly tickle would probably be suicidal.
Bryan, Lily should indeed be nearing full growth. She's been spayed and she has the mass distribution of a typical adult spayed female cat. Do note that this pic is kind to her (that's why I chose it); in some pics, she looks very balloon-like.
ReplyDeleteShe is a beautiful cat, as is her mother Esther. Both display hints that they may have some Maine coon in their background.
Belly tickles? It depends on her waking/sleeping status. If she's ½ asleep, one can stroke her belly with impunity. If she's awake, she's inclined to wield the claws, but not as much as her mother; Esther can sometimes be really wicked with the claws.
I still stand in amaze of the fact that Lily will stay still and stare straight into the camera for one, two, three, even four shots. This one was #3.
