And in This Corner, Weighing in at 15 Pounds...

Was it only last December that the desk chair could hold two kittens, with plenty of room to spare?

Here's Seamus today. He's 15 pounds and still growing.

I knew Maine Coons were "Gentle Giants," but it wasn't until they started eating us out of house and home that I realized just what that meant. I practically need a weight belt to lift them. Carry both at once? Fuggedaboutit.

Sooo cute :-) So huge :-) Is this his max size?

It's possible he'll get up to 20 pounds; his father and a brother from another litter are pretty big. All muscle.

LOVE the back feet hanging off the chair into the atmosphere. What a funny combination... plus-size cat and kitten-maturity. They must be a lot of fun.

LOL!! I love a good porky kitty.

So cute! I love fluffy kitties!

Plus all that fur weighs 5lbs at LEAST. ;)

My maine mix was 20lbs or perhaps a little more a year or two ago and really wasn't fat. He's just big boned!! (I' not sure why everyone snickers when I say that) :)

They are seriously fluffy cats. We're not big on air conditioning, so I wonder how they'll handle those hot and humid Midwest summers. I might have to shave them!
