Anyone else have a small Tortie that never grew much?

She’s two now but still a little thing. My other two cats (a tuxedo and black cat) are much bigger than her. She kind of reminds me of a ferret. Are they just a smaller cat breed generally or is mine just little?

This little girl ran after me out of nowhere tonight and followed me to my front door. I think she’s a keeper.

My husband found her in our yard this week; she had 3 puncture wounds and was not walking well. We brought her to the vet and she received IV antibiotics and fluids. A few days later, she is happy, playful, eating, and learned how to use the litter box! ❤️ She’s very sweet and snuggly, too.

I posted a couple weeks ago, introducing my baby girl Luna. She had her kittens last night (4) and they, along with her, are so perfect and she even had another tortie 💜she’s such a great momma! She wanted me to hold her paw (would swat at me if I let go) through the whole thing 😭 I love my girl so much and the bond we have is unbreakable! Next adventure will be to the vet to get fixed 😂

my funny tortie princess

She mistakes human ears for her mother nipples, but I forgive her cause she’s just a kitten so cat and baby at the same time. Right now has many names. One was made purely by joke. My sister named her badly i don’t remember exact how and my mother said „don’t call her like that. She has a name.”In this moment she didnt had any because I like names that came naturally and it happend… Sister asked „and whats that name” and mom said „yyy DAISY”, so the kitty goes by this because my sister always when we call cat differently says „don’t call her like that. She has a name.” Someking of a rolling joke. My best friend’s boyfriend named her Szajba - something like crazy in polish and these two call her by this one. Mom moved to Pilipitka, because it’s funny and fits the way kitty walks and has the little girl princess vibe. My second sister at first called her „Szmatka” what is literally „a rag”. And it wasn’t far from truth because she soon started collecting all the fluff under the furnitures and her coat really helped her with it. Also coat was the reason why my sister called her a rag. Yes, my sisters like to banter saing annoying things about my cats, but I forgive them because it’s often funny and later I always find them deeply in love with these cats. This was the case with my boy cat who betrayed me when I moved to study and didnt want him to be isolated from my sisters cat who he grow up with. Even if i was back every weekend he decided to become my mothers cat. I was soo alone at studies so I Daisy Pilipitka Szajba Szmatka happend and probably will live with me since October. Boy cat loves me still but definitely spends more time with my mother. Thats the first time she has relationship with a day this deep. I guess I rised him well (one year before I left him for most of the weeks) and I think tortie girl is on a way to be great cat too, now shes the best kitten that looks less and less like a rag with every another day!

On all other cat pages, she doesn’t get appreciated as much as her pink nosed sister, but she’s literally the sweetest little baby who can do no wrong.

CDS is in full effect. This little girl was in our backyard at a tiny age. We fed her and we wound up with the goofiest, most loving little girl 😍

Are anyone else’s torties super vocal?

Post image
1.6k Upvotes

This is my lil girl Miku, and she is the sweetest cat ever. She just turned 3, and I noticed a few things since adopting her. She has never growled or hissed even once, and she meows or purrs constantly. If you talk to her, she’ll look at you and meow back. She will meow at the door. She’ll meow at the tv when we’re watching it. Not loud meows, just chirps. I’ve had cats my entire life and I’ve never seen one as vocal and outgoing as Miku. She also apparently loves being held upside down in your arms like a baby and will meow at my leg to pick her up then starts purring. Anyone else’s torties do stuff like this? Or do I just have a strange cat lol.
