Our cat is a friend of the family and even though he is not particularly special to those outside, this cat is personality plus to us. He is a tabby with extremely large eyes.
He's enormous, weighing in the region of 20lbs but on his last check up, the vet pronouced him fit and not overweight. He's just extremely large boned, very tall with a large head. However, despite is physical size he's very sweet and docile. This cat has grown up with small children and is very patient and adaptable. He is about nine years old and for the first seven was a totally an indoor cat except for supervised visits outside. Recently, I have moved to a new locality and luckily the environment allows him to be let outside. So far he has been fine. I truly believe that his size has helped him.
He loves snuggling in between the bedcover and the blanket and is completely buried. Sometimes it is concerning because you fear he is going to suffocate. Here he is sleeping peacefully on our couch, another favourite spot.
