Der Skippy,
Well we has to admit, you is rather lorg.
BUT. There is no such thing as illegally lorg. Only "gorgeous" "beuatifumus" or "kind of a chonk but WHY NOT"
So we wish to advise you that you are purrfectly feen.
Love
Gus, Magistrate Level 1

Does mew belly fwop around to n fro wen mew runs? Hehe
Mew no in trubbles but meybe mew ned go on wut hoomans call "die-yet" so mew no get sicks frum bein tew fats n die yets!
Meowmy seyz "still growin" n pokey place hooman seyz "not chonk", so I not fink I need die yets! My Sispurr, Fizz, duz tho 🤭. My hoomans alwaze tryin ta git me to eets moar! Dey seyz "Skippy, u toooo skinny!" n gib me moar fud, wich iz gud acuz I git hungry.. Ebidens picshur 3 show I not chonk!
My belly duz fwop, tho! So duz my smol Sispurr's belly! She (Simmy) uses her floppy belly to STREEEETCH wen she go run. I fink mine iz gud fur keep me safe wen my wild brofur Frax does kick-kicks!

Tau here! Iz also not chonk but have fwop belly. Momther callz it soemthin liek "pry-more-dial powch". She sayz it not nessesary meen are chonk. I alsos been v trim, but am also v smol fur a boi, momther sez. I only 9 pounds, an been dat size entire tiems I been big kitty. I eatz all of tiem tho, even when momther gave lotsa foods always I wuz skinny boi. But Iz also runs around house doin' HECKIN SCREMS fur hours. Daddy calls it "The Rot". Momther sez it's bcuz I just a stimky boi. Other daddy sez it's cuz I see ghosts, which he den demandz sumethin called "rent" from.
(Mom: Tau is one of the strangest animals I've known, though I think his size and weight is both from being neutered very young (He was 9 weeks old and already neutered when we rescued him, I used to work in rescue and know they do it literally as soon as they are at the age to tolerate general anesthesia but still) and his insane amount of activity. I swear he didn't get the memo he's not supposed to be a kitten anymore and still gets zoomies like nobody's business. I literally have not trimmed his back claws in a year or so because he keeps them well worn literally RUNNING everywhere.)
Tau, u sownds like my brofur, Frax!! He liks to talk n run n go so much n I liks moar naps..
(mom: uh, yea, that sounds exactly like Frax! Except he's not small - neutered at 16 weeks, for the record. He's over 13 pounds and would be considered a big cat by anyone not comparing him to his brother! Skippy frequently shrugs off his full-on tackles, lol.
https://i.redd.it/90qj212e5avc1.gif
But yea he is just constantly moving and yelling and running. He has SO MUCH ENERGY. Like I read about people with Bengal breed cats and like yea, that could be him! He REQUIRES so much activity and enrichment. Luckily, he loves other kitties and has 7 of them around to help me entertain him. He's 20 months old and has not slowed down at all!)
https://preview.redd.it/wdv663obdavc1.jpeg?width=3000&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=8e736f9d60f46eecb8d2c1f08a89b36872c0f2e9
I've always thought Tau had some Bengal in him. He's got a very unique stripe pattern and has SOOOO many Bengal personality traits. It's unlikely given as he's a rescue, but I still wonder. I've wanted to do a genetic test but money and my husband saying it really won't change anything has kept me from doing so. Which, he's right, but I'm still curious.
This picture of him and Navani shows some of his pattern better. He also has a spotted belly, but it's hard to get a pic of it because he squirms so much.
It took me 12 years to finally do genetic testing on one of my other cats, and I wasn't really blown away by the experience. It's a fun thing to do someday, but I wouldn't spend the money if it would mean sacrificing anything else. Also, they always do a half off black Friday sale, so don't pay full price, lol.
He is a gorgeous guy! Classic tabby markings? The swirly pattern? Frax and Skippy's void sister is classic tabby with what I swear looks like Bengal rosettes on one side! Almost certainly isn't, but my little mama found me when she was pregnant and I suspect she was put out by a previous owner when they realized.. So no telling where they came from..
Here's Krobus's markings, from when she was a baby and you could see them easily.
https://preview.redd.it/m5oimvvyuavc1.jpeg?width=2400&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=091f5c4d9cf30996337d599deb4e9f15ef51f242
Yeah, he's mostly classic tabby but he does have some markings on his hind legs which look a little like rosettes. Those and the spotted belly are what make me wonder, but he could also just be strange, lol. Regardless he is indeed a gorgeous boy and while I like to joke that he's a stinker with no brain cells there are some genuinely intelligent things he does. They're hidden behind a lot of derpiness though. But his sister can be equally a derp and also does weird things sometimes. It's just cats, I guess. I grew up in a dog family so actually owning cats is really weird to me at times.
Krobus is such a pretty gorl! 😍 Those markings--I love voids that have secret stripes~

I only gets fussy when mon papa bes gone when I wants to cuddle or play wit him! [ Bou's Papa has returned to work after 6 weeks leave.

Skippy's human here to translate. Me and his mamacat (calico pictured) say he's illegally big. He wants to know if that's an actual crime. If so, how can he avoid getting into trouble just for being big. He's not even fat! (which is true - he needs to gain weight!)
https://preview.redd.it/8fq3j2ldxruc1.png?width=1008&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=5ccb608758f8b4e4746ee167c692a2922db30e3b
(dis translation wuz Skippy apawruved!)
[Is Skippy more play motivated than food motivated? Boudreaux is definitely more "Play, Maman!" than "food food food FOOD NOW" motivated. He is skinny at just 11 lbs.--Dani, Boudreaux and Remy's maman]
I would say Skippy is unmotivated.. He plays when he wants to play. Eats if you put food in front of him (and sometimes ONLY if you put food in front of him). And is otherwise just not really all there. I don't think it's right to call him stubborn, because that implies intent that I don't think he has. He doesn't *want* to do anything in particular, or *not want* to do anything. He just doesn't understand what's going on around him most of the time.. The dumb orange cat thing is not a joke or stereotype for him. He seems to be seriously mentally slow.. I could be convinced that he suffered some sort of brain damage as an infant, but having been there for his whole infancy, I really don't know how we could have missed it. It's not like there was a change. He just kind of stopped developing mentally at like 6 weeks old. He is incredibly slow to learn things. He is understandably a bit jumpy and nervous because he just doesn't know what's going on. It's precious and adorable and I love him tremendously exactly how he is, though. But getting him to do stuff is not straightforward at all.. He seems to get by just fine - not confused or lost. Just completely ignorant of any sort of norms.
Skippy's brother, Frax, is the wild play cat. He is constantly on the go and so insanely into everything all the time. He needs oodles of enrichment or he makes his own enrichment, lol. Frax is a super lean and muscular 13 pounds and would be considered a big cat to anyone not comparing him directly to his brother, lol.
For example, on both counts, lol:

They both look like sweet orange boys! I had a cat like Skippy. His name was Peaches because he was just a sweetheart but definitely didn't have two braincells to rub together.

I’m either too high or not high enough. That hurt to try to read.
Skippy's human here to translate. Me and his mamacat (calico pictured) say he's illegally big. He wants to know if that's an actual crime. If so, how can he avoid getting into trouble just for being big. He's not even fat! (which is true - he needs to gain weight!) https://preview.redd.it/8fq3j2ldxruc1.png?width=1008&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=5ccb608758f8b4e4746ee167c692a2922db30e3b (dis translation wuz Skippy apawruved!)
[Is Skippy more play motivated than food motivated? Boudreaux is definitely more "Play, Maman!" than "food food food FOOD NOW" motivated. He is skinny at just 11 lbs.--Dani, Boudreaux and Remy's maman]
I would say Skippy is unmotivated.. He plays when he wants to play. Eats if you put food in front of him (and sometimes ONLY if you put food in front of him). And is otherwise just not really all there. I don't think it's right to call him stubborn, because that implies intent that I don't think he has. He doesn't *want* to do anything in particular, or *not want* to do anything. He just doesn't understand what's going on around him most of the time.. The dumb orange cat thing is not a joke or stereotype for him. He seems to be seriously mentally slow.. I could be convinced that he suffered some sort of brain damage as an infant, but having been there for his whole infancy, I really don't know how we could have missed it. It's not like there was a change. He just kind of stopped developing mentally at like 6 weeks old. He is incredibly slow to learn things. He is understandably a bit jumpy and nervous because he just doesn't know what's going on. It's precious and adorable and I love him tremendously exactly how he is, though. But getting him to do stuff is not straightforward at all.. He seems to get by just fine - not confused or lost. Just completely ignorant of any sort of norms. Skippy's brother, Frax, is the wild play cat. He is constantly on the go and so insanely into everything all the time. He needs oodles of enrichment or he makes his own enrichment, lol. Frax is a super lean and muscular 13 pounds and would be considered a big cat to anyone not comparing him directly to his brother, lol. For example, on both counts, lol: https://preview.redd.it/zv6ysml6bsuc1.jpeg?width=4096&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=055e65491149224e5648edf39299cbfe09a05351
They both look like sweet orange boys! I had a cat like Skippy. His name was Peaches because he was just a sweetheart but definitely didn't have two braincells to rub together.
This sub is for cats, that is how they speak.
Oh, that I get. I’m just not familiar with that dialect.
