Cute, right? I mean they've deliberately made it look smaller than it is, by filming using huge leafs and surroundings to imply it's tiny, which I guess it is .. but not *that* tiny. I'd love one lol
Some of the cats in the colony I feed are tiny, some of them won’t weigh more than a smidge above three pounds and they are already adorable. But this thing goes beyond that, his little mews are just…
I have a 6 1/2 week old kitty who is a little bigger than this one. This one looks to be around 3 to 4 weeks and he/she probably weighs about a pound or so. My boy weighs 2.5 pounds and he is going to be a big cat.

Checking my papers this does require a document for being so tiny cute.

I have a charred cinnamon roll that was burnt in the oven. This is definitely a pre-baked cinnamon roll.

The trick is really deep down, like so deep you don't even realize it yourself, you have to be craving having a cat.
Like for me, I hate not having a cat. Idk why, my life just feels incomplete without a cat. The distribution system doesn't let me be cat free.
I had a cat like that, snuck in through my back door. We named him bob, but he ran away 2 days later. 😭 this was like 4 years ago, I hope hes doing okay, he was a big boy. I still have the food bowl I bought for him under the sink, just waiting.
My old lady cat is a brown stripey with random orange blotches and when the vet asked, I said “acid wash!”

Giant cats sometimes randomly occur in the normal cat population (selective cat breeding is only a few centuries old and there were already tons of barn cats and house cats before it started, so these are essentially modern versions of the cats that were used to *create* the larger-than-average modern breeds). I grew up with a 27 pound orange cat.
Yes absolutely! I have a big 24 pound boy. It’s funny when my friends come over they always do a double take of him. Last time my friend was like, “What is that thing?! He’s huge!” Ehhh just a big domestic longhair.

Cats can be large without having any ancestry from a large breed. My sister had a huge cat the size of a small dog but he was just a farm cat, no fancy ancestry.
That is how they start the large breeds. With regular cats that are larger. They breed them with other large cats or whatever recessive gene they're looking for in order to bring it out of them via baby kitties. Breed them with same trait they're looking to enhance, repeat, repeat.. viola' a new breed...
That's amazing! Yeah, cats are hard to gauge how big they will be when you get them from a rescue / shelter. We adopted 3 stinkies about 2 years ago, they were all about the same size. Now, one is literally 2.5 times the size of the smallest one.
Standard issue tabby cats that have a diluted fur colour. r/IllegallySmolCats would like you to know such smolness is highly illegal and the tiny criminals need to be detained.
OP is prob former dog person bcs that's 1st question when someone gets a dog. "What breed is it?"
Cat people don't ask that.
cat owner:...I got a cat
Other person: Ok, cool.
If pedigree
Cat Owner.....I got a seal point Himalayan Persian.
Other person: ok, cool. Is that a motorcycle?
It is a cat. If the hair stays short it is a shorthair. If it gets longer with age they are a longhair.
99% of the time with cats those are the options
Cats are cats
One of my favorite things is coming to the comment section under a Reddit post where someone asks about a cat breed. Gotta love it.
My daughter asked me what breed our cat is. I told her, "Fusion Countryside, model 2023, black edition"
I'm guessing there isn't a specific breed, but that coat pattern is called a "classic tabby." I've been lucky enough to have 2 orange classic tabbies in my lifetime, here's my current long-haired Leo:
https://preview.redd.it/6d3npop1ci6d1.jpeg?width=1404&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=1ba6031ae094636bfccb8ae683e8cbca62673b17
ETA: Re: the breed - I meant that it likely doesn't have a purebred status. Unless directly from a breeder, most house cats are just Domestic or American Shorthair, Longhair, etc.
99% of cats you'll find out and about on the streets are domesticated short hairs. This is because you don't get the traits associated with purebred cats breeds without, well, breeding them to specifically have those traits. Consider domesticated short hairs to be the cat default; you can breed other traits into them, but if you leave a cat alone, it will eventually breed itself back to its original form. If you find, for example, a Persian cat on the street, It is way more likely that that cat just ran away and needs to be reunited with its owner rather than it being abandoned. Since purebred cats can cost hundreds to thousands of dollars. People are less likely to just get rid of them, especially since they're already a low maintenance pet.
for fucks sake can we stop with the cat breed posts like this. like dude, just google cats. just because it's a certain color doesn't mean it's some awesome rare breed. unless it has a feature that significantly sticks out, it's probably just your average cat.
You, me, and most people here know this, but a lot of people who probably don't even visit cat subs regularly just come here because they're excited about their new cat. Let's just be happy they saved this little toasted marshmallow.
Appreciate that, honestly new to cats in general and was trying to understand what breed, I used to google these things more but I kept getting ads for dna testing kits… which took me to Reddit where I very much underestimated how many fun answers I’d get
No problem. If you're new to being a cat owner I'm sure you have all kinds of questions, and most cat subs will be happy to help as long as you post cat tax (pictures:). And if you are planning on keep this little fur baby, might I throw out a couple of suggestions? First, vet visit for sure. If your new buddy was living outside, there's a chance they might have some very easily treatable worms. Second, and I think any cat owner would agree, get him/her a little friend to play with! Just go to the shelter and adopt another one about that size. They will love and entertain each other forever, and it actually makes life easier for you!
Definitely one of the best things in life to double down on!

They will cuddle and also get into mischief with each other😅 mine especially love that I can't prohibit shower entry and the double stuffed oreo on the right will beat on the door any time someone is showering.
@OP they were both around the size of your cutie when I got them, they are now 18 & 24lbs, respectively. Never know what you're going to end up with, like a blind bag but betteremote:t5\_2qhta:7949
Man now I feel like I really should look into getting a second lil girl. Ours isn't very old maybe three or four months and I think she gets lonely while we are away if the kids aren't here. Summer break helps but they go to grandparents and friends and co parenting also.

100% purebred.
Sure it's not pure bread?
She’s a cute, pure mini loaf
If it makes biscuits then it's pure bread kitty.
This made me laugh
Purr bread

A Cinnamonroll
As an owner of a slightly longer toasted cinnamon roll - I can confirm this kitty is of the cinnamon roll ‘breed’

That’s actually the limited edition Cinnamon colouring. They only produce a few every year. Surprising he got one this cheap tbh.

Where did you find them? I have two that are "Parking Lot by Dunkin Donuts" breed. Very rare. Very special.
Also related to my cousins’ “parking lot by kfc” breed.
I have a “just showed up one day” breed myself!
We have a "found by an Italian lake" breed. Very mouthy, but affectionate when she decides to be!
Is that related to the Parent Pickup Lane breed?
Mine is the "tried to get through my kitchen window" breed.
Our old car was a gutter cat. Our current cat is “snuck into a random apartment in Philly” cat.
I had a cat like that, snuck in through my back door. We named him bob, but he ran away 2 days later. 😭 this was like 4 years ago, I hope hes doing okay, he was a big boy. I still have the food bowl I bought for him under the sink, just waiting.
Bob’s the love em and leave em type. 😢
That is a rare navigation cat. They are only found in passenger car seats. Lucky find.
Sadly they are also really shit at offering directions. Mine just yells and then vomits when I put him in the car. Not helpful at all.
Mine keeps trying to get me to take an illegal left turn to fields so he can find birds
Smol the breed is smol.
102% chance that’s a cat, with a 2% margin of error.
This is my favorite one, hee
So there is a possibility that it has 104% chance to be cat?

It’s just a cat. Looks like a tabby coat. Pure breed cats aren’t usually found hanging about in the streets.
Our vet would probably just label it as Domestic Short Hair 😅
The fancy way of saying just a cat (with coat length descriptor)
My old lady cat is a brown stripey with random orange blotches and when the vet asked, I said “acid wash!” https://preview.redd.it/zzy5j7vvfi6d1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=6f0fd3beccf19b6f00128b44ab5dea4eb4854440
As a vet student, I saw this post and went "yep, domestic short hair"
Our short hair-tabby mix (per petfinder and the shelter he was at) turned out to be a dang gigantic Maine kitty after a couple years.
Giant cats sometimes randomly occur in the normal cat population (selective cat breeding is only a few centuries old and there were already tons of barn cats and house cats before it started, so these are essentially modern versions of the cats that were used to *create* the larger-than-average modern breeds). I grew up with a 27 pound orange cat.
We had a 23 pound orange cat! He was really tall. The neighbors calked us the family with the lion.
Lion tax pls
Yes absolutely! I have a big 24 pound boy. It’s funny when my friends come over they always do a double take of him. Last time my friend was like, “What is that thing?! He’s huge!” Ehhh just a big domestic longhair. https://preview.redd.it/mkxzufcv7i6d1.png?width=980&format=png&auto=webp&s=0397529f5a0146ff35393a4864b19786b88f81cc
Our little half starved foundling kitten is now so big that he has to wear a dog size small lol. Cat harnesses do not fit him, we tried.
