I wanted to take a picture of the new kitty’s face so that we could contemplate what kind of cat she might be. I am torn between her being a Maine Coon and a Chinese Lion. If she is either breed, she’s exceptionally small for her kind. She also refuses to cooperate for a picture this morning, unless, somehow, looking at her ankle tells you something about her breeding (Oh, my god, she’s a Victorian Hussy!)
Read the wikipedia page on maine coons – you can tell everyone that she has Viking ancestry! She does seem to be a dwarf maine coon – she has lots of the persian or angoran in her.
You got yerself a Maine Coon there, little missy. We’ve got one. They’re awesome cats. Very mellow. But HUGE. Or, as Donald Trump would say, YOOOOGE.
Except that she’s so tiny. It’s as if someone took a Maine Coon and reduced her down to eight pounds. But, yeah, I think she may indeed be a dwarf Maine Coon, but I don’t know if that’s due to malnutrition as a kitten or if she is just genetically small.
Ha, when I’m not calling her “Squeaky” I’m going to start calling her “Runt.”
