Must be a black cat thing for sure.
I think my dear Catsby, mighty king of chonkers is taking his share (currently 19.3 lbs, Catsby is officially on a diet, we want our baby panther to live long and de-choncked)

He is a big boyo, joke apart he does have big bones but we are working with the vet to get him down, objective is around 16Lbs. Bonus: Veronica aka Fleefloof (she is 12lbs but as her namesake indicates she is terribly fluffy)

So, someone else mistakes their bowling ball for their cat too! I keep greeting the bowling ball while my black cat shakes his head at me. Esp bcs the bowling ball hasn't moved in awhile. I've mentioned this b4...😆 still doing it...so that's how he got the description...🤔

I thought my girl was big (she's on a diet!).
She is holdable size, but not that kind of cat really. Sometimes I can but other times she chomps on my hand or slaps me in the face. She's getting better though.
She's a tough fun little cat though. She loves to play with our 100/80lbs dogs.
I've got one of these too! She's four, about nine pounds. Believe it or not, right before we got her, she had six kittens; not sure how they fit. We've got her baby also, and he's twenty pounds now.
Her name is Mel.

I think it's black burmese thing seeing all these pics. These were taken on my girl's 17th birthday (Halloween was her name and birthday) she was just under 6 lb. but as you might guess from her age she was healthy.
Sadly, just passed away a few mouths ago.
I have a tiny void myself. He was severely malnourished as a kitten, which stunted his growth. He's completely healthy, just half the size he should be.

I got Lenny off the streets at about 7 months and severely malnourished. Then suddenly at 1 1/2 years old he grew in every way. He’s now a giant 16.5 pounds and when I asked the vet if he needed to diet, she said, “No, he’s just a big-ass cat,” LOL.
https://preview.redd.it/q60twybcak4d1.jpeg?width=2886&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c1b7c109413abf91bb84a53693d076f348ca29a8

We, too, have a big-ass boy, at least length-wise. The vet says he has the longest spine/tail he's ever seen on a cat.
https://preview.redd.it/g3ofivc41n4d1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e4d0b7223aeb30b7e7bef1d18b4f5b2abd30a2e6
I have a big ass void too!! This is such a bad picture but one of the only ones I have where you can actually see all of him! The little shaved bit is from when he was hospitalized with a urinary blockage - thankfully he’s been doing great since!
He’s 14lbs (trying to get him closer to 13lbs) but he’s just genuinely the longest cat I’ve ever seen! He can reach his front paws up and over the counter just by standing up. And when he’s very happy, he lifts his tail so far up it goes almost flat against his back, and it’s long enough to touch his nose when he smiles up at me.
Probably for some cats including yours, other cats are just small. I had one kitty that was just huge and strangley quite muscular, he did not need a diet, but his litter-mate sister was dainty! Probably has to do something with the mama cat and how nutrients get distributed to the kittens during development, for my scenario.
Muscles (his name was Neptune) was very short haired and his sister (Siren) was a very fluffy medium length hair. They were orange tabbies, super cute. I understand most female cats aren't usually orange, so I think that's kind of cool too! Maybe I'll try to find a picture, but I'm at an optical appointment atm lol.
My family has a barn cat who showed up as a feral kitten in the middle of the winter
She's barely grown since then, she's so fine and small, but she's very healthy now
Everyone on the net said that teenage pregnancy can leads to stunted growth in cats so I guess that's why my void is about the same size as her daughter these days.
https://preview.redd.it/0v93a1m3jn4d1.jpeg?width=4624&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=cab62957e7a2739e8b04e6036e6a88761ba6222e
My void is exactly the same, she's just lanky and skinny and never puts on weight. The vet assures me she's totally healthy though.
She has access to food whenever she pleases too, so it's not like she's being starved.
https://preview.redd.it/hkgir7plej4d1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=9bb96ea7382e53663a273282c9ff6d36d0360bd2
My vet calls her a pocket kitty. Fully grown and just a hair over 7 pounds. What she lacks in weight she makes up for in pure chaos 🖤
I'm glad 🩷, and it must be so comforting when you put your head gently on her plushy belly. I hope for you she likes snuggles, because it looks very hard to resist!
Everybody thinks our little cat is a kitten. She's tiny. She was 2.9 kg when we got her, aged around 4 yrs. Now she is the exact same weight at 11 yrs. That's about 6.3 lbs. The vet says she's healthy, she has regular checks. She doesn't eat a lot, she's fussy but she loves premium food and treats.
https://preview.redd.it/u29uw793yi4d1.png?width=426&format=png&auto=webp&s=0fd2b9bb0ffb84f027136a5a39371526a69a6282
Same with my void, she's small but "long" if that makes sense, she is also around the weight your of your void and the vet has always said it's just her build.
i have a "forever kitten" too! at first i was really nervous (she and her brother are my first cats) and i thought her brother was eating all of her food. but no, she eats like crazy! i took her to the vet and he was surprised to see her be so small and mighty :")

The grey one is one of our pair of sisters who are 6 pounds each @ 3 years old. They’re so tiny compared to the brothers.

Mine was sick as a kitten and she stayed smaller than average too. The shelter didn't expect her to make it to six months but she lived a happy 16 years :)

I have a void, she is a light little thing and is 12 years old. Never seemed to put on any weight and she feels like a bag of air when I pick her up. About 3.5kg at her latest vet checkup, but she is fine.

I might be wrong on this but I feel it may be an epigenetics thing. From many years owning a vet clinic I noticed, perhaps not a scientific enough observation, that the weight of the litter, once mature, seemed to correlate to the diet of the Queen whilst pregnant.
That is to say that the diet of the Queen whilst pregnant may determine the average mature weight of the resultant litter. Queens that lived in areas that has high amounts of human made processed food (the restaurant strip) often seemed to have lead to less lean mature aged offspring, whereas the kittens from a Queen that lived near the port who had survived on a largely pescatarean diet whilst pregnant seemed to produce leaner mature aged offspring.
This same phenomenon occurs in people. During the dustbowl era people who were malnourished would produce lean offspring that remained so during most of their lives, despite having far better diets. This was backed up by evidence from separated twins. People who ate far higher calorie diets whilst pregnant tended to have less lean offspring.

For some reason, Ripley gained mostly muscle, so she looks pudgy, but it's pure panther power.
Have you had them checked out with the vet? My husband had a kitten just like this when we met and she didn't grow or put on weight, I took her to the vet and she had an adrenal disorder. The vet said had she not received treatment she'd have died, after treatment she didn't grow a lot (damage had been done) but she did put on weight and she was with us till she was 15.

Luna, just under 5 pounds. Serious attitude, though.
I had neutered males. They were around 15 pounds, when young and healthy. When they were older, I adopted two female kittens, spayed early. They each weigh less than 10 pounds.
It’s normal for females to be smaller.
Together, they are like one big cat.
It’s been six years. I’m used to mini sized cats. They are just as delightful as big/normal sized cats 😹
How much does she weigh and what does the vet say?
We had a white kitty that weighed all of 6 lbs (2.7 kg) her whole adult life. Perfectly healthy and full of energy. She lived to the ripe old age of 20 (or was it 21).
My little girl, Juniper, is the exact same way. She was a stray, so my assumption is she was malnourished, but she is also only grazes when she eats so she remains rather light. While I wish she had the growth she was supposed to have, I love her all the same 🥰

I had a cat like that once. Didn’t grow at all for like the first two years. Finally grew a little bit around 2-3 but shortly after stopped growing again. The vet theorized a genetic growth hormone disorder, but I got her from the pound so 🤷♂️
My one-eyed terror was the same, until she was two and I switched her to a wet diet, almost overnight she doubled in size (not fat, just not kitten sized).

He's a big big boy a big ole boy
He is a Hoosier, we adopted him while living close to Indianapolis, on the shelter website he was described as "the bowling ball shaped cat"
So, someone else mistakes their bowling ball for their cat too! I keep greeting the bowling ball while my black cat shakes his head at me. Esp bcs the bowling ball hasn't moved in awhile. I've mentioned this b4...😆 still doing it...so that's how he got the description...🤔
Finally some truth in advertising! I’ve got an orange guy like this and he’s on a diet too 😅
Stick with it, our chonk was not happy one her diet but ever since she lost the weight she’s had way more energy despite being a senior baby.
That's exactly what I aim to ! And so far he has been cooperative and had a lot of energy (perhaps it is the summer for the later)
damn i think even the weight i am losing is going straight to your cat
*snort* 😆 who knew black cats were capable of remote matter/energy transfer!

My calico is 4 years old and 8.4 lbs! Petite kitties
My orange girl is 5.5lbs. She was an abandoned little runt with a big fat head I took in at 3 weeks.
But does she still have a big fat head 😅😂
OMG!! I would always want to hold her!!
OMG!! I would always want to hold her!!
She is holdable size, but not that kind of cat really. Sometimes I can but other times she chomps on my hand or slaps me in the face. She's getting better though. She's a tough fun little cat though. She loves to play with our 100/80lbs dogs.
I've got one of these too! She's four, about nine pounds. Believe it or not, right before we got her, she had six kittens; not sure how they fit. We've got her baby also, and he's twenty pounds now. Her name is Mel. https://preview.redd.it/cm9er4gg1l4d1.png?width=867&format=png&auto=webp&s=bca84acf9cc1e279ef9a462d8bc996eb4a3acb71
SO CUTE
[Image](https://imgur.com/a/JOE68cp) [Image](https://imgur.com/a/k9wR6Hd) I think it's black burmese thing seeing all these pics. These were taken on my girl's 17th birthday (Halloween was her name and birthday) she was just under 6 lb. but as you might guess from her age she was healthy. Sadly, just passed away a few mouths ago.
Such big, beautiful eyes you have.
She’s looking at me
Oh my goooodness! She's beaaaautiful
I have a tiny void myself. He was severely malnourished as a kitten, which stunted his growth. He's completely healthy, just half the size he should be. https://preview.redd.it/5p7xk1ta2j4d1.jpeg?width=2250&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=66b1a3584e2b5e903ff87bbd5d62c87a3addbb81

I got Lenny off the streets at about 7 months and severely malnourished. Then suddenly at 1 1/2 years old he grew in every way. He’s now a giant 16.5 pounds and when I asked the vet if he needed to diet, she said, “No, he’s just a big-ass cat,” LOL. https://preview.redd.it/q60twybcak4d1.jpeg?width=2886&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c1b7c109413abf91bb84a53693d076f348ca29a8

What a beauty! Here’s to the big ass void boys! 😆
I feel like we have to have a void measuring contest on this sub now 😂
Battle of the Big Bois!!
https://preview.redd.it/g3ofivc41n4d1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e4d0b7223aeb30b7e7bef1d18b4f5b2abd30a2e6 I have a big ass void too!! This is such a bad picture but one of the only ones I have where you can actually see all of him! The little shaved bit is from when he was hospitalized with a urinary blockage - thankfully he’s been doing great since! He’s 14lbs (trying to get him closer to 13lbs) but he’s just genuinely the longest cat I’ve ever seen! He can reach his front paws up and over the counter just by standing up. And when he’s very happy, he lifts his tail so far up it goes almost flat against his back, and it’s long enough to touch his nose when he smiles up at me.
Amen to the long boys! Your boy is so beautiful! I hope he continues to feel better. :)
Holy shit he is god damn swole. Dope ass cat king I love all these cat subs so much
Ooh so that's the reason? Also happened to my void and probably explains why she's so tiny and quite skinny.
Probably for some cats including yours, other cats are just small. I had one kitty that was just huge and strangley quite muscular, he did not need a diet, but his litter-mate sister was dainty! Probably has to do something with the mama cat and how nutrients get distributed to the kittens during development, for my scenario.
My Coco is like that muscular/built well and her litter sister Lula is dainty. Both also have different types of black fur too!
Muscles (his name was Neptune) was very short haired and his sister (Siren) was a very fluffy medium length hair. They were orange tabbies, super cute. I understand most female cats aren't usually orange, so I think that's kind of cool too! Maybe I'll try to find a picture, but I'm at an optical appointment atm lol.
My family has a barn cat who showed up as a feral kitten in the middle of the winter She's barely grown since then, she's so fine and small, but she's very healthy now
Everyone on the net said that teenage pregnancy can leads to stunted growth in cats so I guess that's why my void is about the same size as her daughter these days. https://preview.redd.it/0v93a1m3jn4d1.jpeg?width=4624&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=cab62957e7a2739e8b04e6036e6a88761ba6222e
My void is exactly the same, she's just lanky and skinny and never puts on weight. The vet assures me she's totally healthy though. She has access to food whenever she pleases too, so it's not like she's being starved.
https://preview.redd.it/hkgir7plej4d1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=9bb96ea7382e53663a273282c9ff6d36d0360bd2 My vet calls her a pocket kitty. Fully grown and just a hair over 7 pounds. What she lacks in weight she makes up for in pure chaos 🖤
[удалено]
Super cute!! 🖤 I’ve always had big ol dogs so having a teeny kat has been fun!
Our cat is over 13 years old and has never cracked 8 lbs despite always having a bowl of food available
That's a tiny cat. So cute!
Concentrated Chaos!
I have one just like this. Chaos for days to compensate for her smallness.

Sitting like this, she looks like she's digesting two other cats in her belly. Or a small dog. I hope this beautiful baby is doing OK. 💕
She is doing fabulous. I know she looks overweight but she’s seen the vet and is doing great, she’s honestly just very plushy
I'm glad 🩷, and it must be so comforting when you put your head gently on her plushy belly. I hope for you she likes snuggles, because it looks very hard to resist!
She is the plushiest lady in all the land and loves snuggles
Wow, Eerie is probably the best name for a black cat ever lol
Right? I might actually have to steal that if I get another.
Eerie needs 3 diets at once
Rotund
Eeerie is transmogrifying into eeyore.
This is probably the best photo of a black hole ever taken.

I stand corrected
Chonkers
Everybody thinks our little cat is a kitten. She's tiny. She was 2.9 kg when we got her, aged around 4 yrs. Now she is the exact same weight at 11 yrs. That's about 6.3 lbs. The vet says she's healthy, she has regular checks. She doesn't eat a lot, she's fussy but she loves premium food and treats. https://preview.redd.it/u29uw793yi4d1.png?width=426&format=png&auto=webp&s=0fd2b9bb0ffb84f027136a5a39371526a69a6282
Does he have a lazy eye?
She has an enlarged pupil. We don't know what caused it. She was a rescue cat. It could be an injury or she could have had it from birth. She sees ok.
Same with my void, she's small but "long" if that makes sense, she is also around the weight your of your void and the vet has always said it's just her build.
My kitty is a Calico, but she's the same size. Such a little girl!

Black never goes out of style, after all.
i have a "forever kitten" too! at first i was really nervous (she and her brother are my first cats) and i thought her brother was eating all of her food. but no, she eats like crazy! i took her to the vet and he was surprised to see her be so small and mighty :") https://preview.redd.it/yz7ccodcpj4d1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=340ff11d27217a3686c1ef1cdf91479447505a2b

You gave them some, right? 🧐
Was she the runt of the litter? They usually stay tiny
I was about to ask the same question. I've got 3 sibling kittens, 8 months old. The last kitten born is so smoll we could fit 3 of her into her big brother. She such a tiny cutie!
Printer ran out of ink
My runt is now a little bigger than his litter bro. The third died and the ladies who trapped at 8 wks have no idea what happened to #3.

My void is the same, basically hasn't grown since she was like 9 months old, she's 4 now
I have a void, she is a light little thing and is 12 years old. Never seemed to put on any weight and she feels like a bag of air when I pick her up. About 3.5kg at her latest vet checkup, but she is fine.

I might be wrong on this but I feel it may be an epigenetics thing. From many years owning a vet clinic I noticed, perhaps not a scientific enough observation, that the weight of the litter, once mature, seemed to correlate to the diet of the Queen whilst pregnant. That is to say that the diet of the Queen whilst pregnant may determine the average mature weight of the resultant litter. Queens that lived in areas that has high amounts of human made processed food (the restaurant strip) often seemed to have lead to less lean mature aged offspring, whereas the kittens from a Queen that lived near the port who had survived on a largely pescatarean diet whilst pregnant seemed to produce leaner mature aged offspring. This same phenomenon occurs in people. During the dustbowl era people who were malnourished would produce lean offspring that remained so during most of their lives, despite having far better diets. This was backed up by evidence from separated twins. People who ate far higher calorie diets whilst pregnant tended to have less lean offspring.

I've got a wee cat that's still about that size and has been forever. It's normal for some to remain smol.
Have you had them checked out with the vet? My husband had a kitten just like this when we met and she didn't grow or put on weight, I took her to the vet and she had an adrenal disorder. The vet said had she not received treatment she'd have died, after treatment she didn't grow a lot (damage had been done) but she did put on weight and she was with us till she was 15.
Still cute either way.

Shes so cute
Such a gorgeous little face! I wouldn't be able to tell her no.
She’s small but also very pretty!
I had neutered males. They were around 15 pounds, when young and healthy. When they were older, I adopted two female kittens, spayed early. They each weigh less than 10 pounds. It’s normal for females to be smaller. Together, they are like one big cat. It’s been six years. I’m used to mini sized cats. They are just as delightful as big/normal sized cats 😹
My tortie is the same, especially compared to my void - he's about 4kg and my tortie is only just 3, she's got a pea head!
My Selina too, 9 years and still kitten size <3
My girl is the same. Tiny adult.
OMG how precious
I had a void like that. So tiny she'd sit happily with all 4 paws in the palm of my hand.
Love all these miniature black holes! Thank y'all ♥️😸
How much does she weigh and what does the vet say? We had a white kitty that weighed all of 6 lbs (2.7 kg) her whole adult life. Perfectly healthy and full of energy. She lived to the ripe old age of 20 (or was it 21).
My little girl, Juniper, is the exact same way. She was a stray, so my assumption is she was malnourished, but she is also only grazes when she eats so she remains rather light. While I wish she had the growth she was supposed to have, I love her all the same 🥰 https://preview.redd.it/kanped078k4d1.jpeg?width=1908&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=b3435fcb63851709608c6904d7a32c668d57f020
I had a black cat growing up just like this! I named her “little one” and it ended up being a perfect name cuz she was always so tiny
I had a cat like that once. Didn’t grow at all for like the first two years. Finally grew a little bit around 2-3 but shortly after stopped growing again. The vet theorized a genetic growth hormone disorder, but I got her from the pound so 🤷♂️
Her precious eyes 🥺
Ya, I have a petite black kitty girl, too.
Maybe she's a dwarf cat. Still cute !
SOOOOO CUTE 😭❤️
my czn cat Ben just look like her
She has such large eyes, what an adorable cutie! 💕💕
Mine eats 1/2 cup a day of weight loss food and stays 140% ideal body weight.
Kitten size is good! My boy was 24 pounds and nearly 3 feet long, my girl was only 8 pounds at her heaviest.
Yup I wish I had his figure
Some cats are just TINY. I had an Abyssinian that weight 3.5 lbs when she was full grown.
My one-eyed terror was the same, until she was two and I switched her to a wet diet, almost overnight she doubled in size (not fat, just not kitten sized).

Permanently itty bitty 🤏
Is she fixed ? Cause mine had her kitty size until I got her spayed and then BOOM ! She gained some chunk

She looks concerned…. Feed her lots of treats
Cats,like people,come in different shapes and sizes.
