For fun I decided to measure Delilah just to see how big she was. She measures a whole 7in from floor to shoulder and 15in from nose to butt. I'm not sure how exact those measurements are, as you can seefrom her picture it was easier said than done to measure her. :lol3: I think she may have finally grown, she is almost 5lbs now too!


Feel free to try to measure your kitties too!

Nilah is around 14 inches long.  I got around 12 inches from floor to shoulder... Does that make her very tall?

Sundar ran into the cat enclosure and gave me his best 'you want to measure me, come and get me' look...

Here is Nilah modelling the very latest in red and white tape measures:

She looks fabulous in red and white tape! :nod:

Either she is tall, or Delilah is long. I stuck the tape on her nose and measured down to her butt. I managed to get 15 before she was rolling herself in it. :lol3:

She's so cute


When
Lynxx
was a kitten, I measured him once. Stretched out he was 13 inches long. Luna would never let me measure her. Midnight when I 1st got him, he was 1lb 1oz, fit in the palm of my hand. Stretched out he was barely 8 inches long.

Awe well I measured my handy helper again, because she always likes to help me measure. I got 10in long this time... :lol3: that seems more accurate.

Penelope is a bit bigger at 9in floor to shoulder and 13in long. She is the lanky one of the two as well.

I'll have to try and measure Jack, because he's really long and tall compaired to the girls.

I remember the day l got him as a kitten he was all ears and legs, and l thought then he's going to be huge!

My heart just melted seeing darling Delilah. You have been keeping her from us OR I just have not been in Fur Pictures much lately. She is just adorable and so teeny. :rub:

I will have to measure my Perkins! He is a very, very long cat with a long tail. He must measure almost three feet from tail to head!! Will see if he will let me measure him today.

I guess it has been a while since I posted pictures. I don't know if you saw the ones I put in their thread a while ago or not. There are some cute ones of the girls at the lake.

Even though Delilah is still small, I think she has really grown recently and seems so big. I can't believe she will be 1 next month!

Yep, she makes my heart melt every time too!

I measured the cats ages ago, and have no idea where those measurements went. I do know that somehow the topic of Lazlo's tail came up, and his tail, from base to tip, is 13" long!
