Nipsy IS a beautiful cat. He looks a lot like my Tiger who I also
suspect is a Maine Coon. There is no question that Nipsy is big but I
think the picture tends to exaggerate his size. By holding the arms out
and taking the picture up close, Nipsy would appear larger than life.

LOL, I told you I got accused of posting a "doctored" photo last time I put
that link up. The cat being closer to the camera than the person probably
*does* give that illusion, but even in a pic of her holding him close, you can
still tell how big he is. Look at the size of his head in relation to her in
this photo. He's got the biggest cat-head I've ever seen. He truly is a gentle
giant though.

And his paws are *huge*! They're as big as my hands!!!

I love a cat with big paws...don't know why, but I like them.

I just thought of something... imagine a polydactyl Maine Coon's paws. ;-)

LOL oh Sherry you could see he is a very big boy! from the first picture,
but the second picture is a lovely picture anyway! what a handsome lad he
is.

http://www.catclub.net/home.cfm you should sign up with this cats club and
enter him for the photo of the month competition, Bebe my cat won it one
month, I received a duffle bag which was really nice :-)

WOW what big pussy cat! beautiful! sure look part Maine Coon to me too!
how much does it weigh?


He only weighs around twenty pounds. He's just big, but really under all

that
hair he's very lean, you can see his shoulder blades in the photo. . If he

had
a better appetite, he'd probably be huge. He just picks at his food, no

matter
what you feed him. He's always been that way.

Sherry


a fat cat is NOT a healthy cat! he looks beautiful to me :-)
