Aya was just too cute. I hope she forgive me for the flash as it was simply too dark to get a good shot. i luv the way she curls her tail up around the side. A perfect meatloaf cat.



Just so you can get an idea how small and compact she is here are two more. That's a regular size throw pillow.

Awww......what a sweetie pie! I've always called that the "Tucked" position, whenever I hear someone call it the meat loaf position it cracks me up.

Aya's marking's are stunning.

I know you always said she is a small sized cat but wow, she is really teensy. What a beautiful cat! She has such awesome markings.

She's so sweet I had to look again. I notice some of her red patches have tabby stripes.

What does she weigh? I would guess 5-6 pounds. A large kitten size.

She is, beleive it or not 3.2kilos or 7 lbs! she's long and lean when stretched out. She's all muscle though. She just compacts incredibly well. I swear she's smaller folded up than our 6.75lb cat Gracie was. Unfortunately she's not around to compare.

Okay now, here's a question. As I have said I call that posture the Tucked position, as in "She is Tucked".

Mazy does not Tuck both paws, only one. I call that the Half-Tuck. In fact I like to go a bit further and say "Mazy on the Half-Tuck".

So what would that be in the meatloaf or catloaf vernacular?

Left-over meatloaf?

Everyone is saying she's teeny but I am shocked at how big she is I think the last pic I saw of her was when she was 4 or 5 months old .....
She's sooo gorgeous and adorable

We call that position "the chicken" because it looks like they are laying eggs.

Eyah, I have a hard time remembering that she was even smaller when I found her 18mos ago...



Foot comparison shot. My big foot (27cm) vs. 350gram kitten!

We call it "roosting" for the same reason! Oscar is our rooster, but sometimes Scotty will pose that way. Mostly, Scotty is in the upright position, or belly-up, as some might call it.

Adorable kitty, btw! So teensy! Our boys are 14lbs and 17lbs, so seeing a cat so small really makes us realize how big our boys are.
