    Munchkin cats?

    OK, so from the cat book where I learned of Cat & Griz, I read about munchkin cats. Never heard of them before. Found this pic on the web. The smallest in G. Book of Records is 3" high and weighs 2 pounds. Cute! Want one!

    Might be cute, but my 16lb fuzzballs would not do too well with such a small cat. And who knows what the greyhounds would do, might look like a tasty treat to them. But I could see them being nice.

      I never heard of them before. They're cute. But my German Shepherd would probably think it was a squirrel, and she tries her best to catch one. I hope she never does because they fight back.

        I think they could have done a little better job with photoshop.

          Uh, Sorry honey, I think I just sat on the cat, it wasn't there a minute ago.


          I've seen a full grown cat that was eaten by a sewer rat (creek a bit away had a lot of construction around it, driving them into the neighborhood, wasn't pretty). This thing would be an appetizer inviting them up.
          She couldn't tell the difference between the escape pod, and the bathroom. We had to go back for her.........................Twice.

                OK, Jeff. Is that a cat or a stuffed plaything? The largest cat on record is 30 pounds and 48 inches long. If yours beats that, write to Guiness!!!!!

                  FYI: "munchkin cats" are a genetic defect, similar to achondroplastic dwarfs ("little people") in humans, but not the same gene.
