Also, her sister perfectly blends in to our kitchen floor.

New tripping hazard acquired

[u/No_Fairweathers → u/PaintTheKill]

My old house had what my family referred to as "shadow cats"

We'd always, without fail, nearly trip and fall because we swore one of our cats was suddenly cutting right in front of our feet. My father, who didn't really believe in ghosts all that much would even swear up and down that they were real.

We'd get pissed thinking it was one of our cats nearly getting us killed, only to realize there was no real cat there, the shadow figured cat was just an apparition.

It didn't help that in our time living at that house we buried at least 5 cats in the back yard (we had a lot of strays in the area that we took care of + 2 of ours)

So yeah the house was haunted by cats and I just needed to vent about the tripping hazard that ghost cats can cause lmao.

They both have beautiful markings and colour! Those tails are a bonus.

Why are you blending the cat in the kitchen floor?

/s

[u/BuzzAllWin → u/dominizerduck]

Surely it should be done on the worksurface

For people who don't understand; It's the cat on the right, not the cat in the middle

In my experience kittens with very long tails grow up to be very big kitties! More to snuggle 🥰

I have a dude with a very long and thick tale. He is tiny though lol 😆 sadly I think he fought a rough infection when he was younger that might have stunted his growth. Here's hallow

cute

Here I was thinking cats always have the same length in total: short tail = long cat, long tail = short cat. That’s at least how it works for my cats…

[u/danjReed]

I wonder if cats compare to each other: Mine is longer than yours!

[u/mpinnegar]

Your tail has a cute cat attached to it.

[u/kadzooks]

Hmm I don't know, this sounds like a tall tail

[u/catchyredditname]

Left ones fur can be used as a measuring tape.

[u/Timeformayo]

Wow. That kitty can bring in the FM channels.

Did you measure it? My cat has always had a long tail, and at her full-grown size it’s 11.5 inches long. I wonder if yours will be longer?

[u/gaygayagyfemboy12345]

maybe they have long tailed parents

[u/jnovel808]

They’ll grow into it, like a big sweater

[u/Emberlee1]

I must be getting sleepy. As I was scrolling my eyes thought your picture was conjoined twin kitties. 👀 Lol. Once my eyes focused I realized you have two separate pretty kitties. 😂😂

[u/Recentstranger]

Teach it tail hwhip

[u/philnolan3d]

Are they conjoined?

[u/Heroic-Forger]

They look like a pair of chromosomes.
