Stomp: "I'll have a rum . . . . And coke."
Bartender: "why the pause?"
Stomp: "Dunno, I've always had them."
big pause or it doesn't make sense
Massive paws would also work if you really exaggerate it. 😉
Genius
I'm gonna need another photo before I believe this is real... and I just want another.
Sounds like they need to adopt a different GF
Right?! I’d go it alone with Stomp by my side.
are we sure this is a cat and not a young lynx?
It’s a Highlander cat. Natural bobbed tail, curled ears, and polydactyl claws.
At least it's not a young mountain lion...
I am imagining the cat making exaggerated cartoon footstep sounds as it walks
Coconut halves
I’d adopt this freak show in a second and give him the best home
We can't see your cat's tail from this one picture. Is it short? Those feet and short tail may make Stomp a Pixie-Bob breed .
Its a highland lynx, which are generally bred to have manx tail.
Fun fact: because of the manx tail, it has a high chance of being incontinent.
I got my long haired Highlander from a gal at work whose daughter was allergic. Best cat I’ve ever had.
Just imagine the amount of biscuits Stomp could make. Absolute perfection
Stomp summoned this book from the depths of my memory. Big things in store for those big paws!
"An 'I can read' book" yeah why else would you have it then, smartass
/s just in case
I had that book as a kid and I'd completely forgotten about it until now!
If this is actually your cat, you might get him checked for acromegaly.
Looks like polydactyly to me, which is not uncommon in cats.
Not my kitty, but good to know!
Fun fact: Ernest Hemingway used to collect polydactyl cats and now, because of him, there is a abnormally sizable population of polydactyl cats on Key West, FL.
Ive been to the Hemingway house 20 or so times now (every year I visit) and it’s great. Now i just go to sit there and pet cats. I don’t even care about Hemingway.
If you are not having a very large stiff drink while you are petting them, you may be doing it wrong!
You know what they say about cats with big peets.
They need big cuddles. I'm glad he's got an accomodating home.
I love him
Ground pounders up and around.
I bet that adorable dude can move.
It's not a pathological defect though? I mean does he have health problems because of his paws?
Polydatctyly (extra toes) is not all that uncommon in cats. As far as I know it doesn't lead to any notable negative outcomes. We had a poly cat (named Poly because that's what the shelter called her) who lived a long and healthy life. Earnest Hemmingway famously kept and bred polydactyl cats at his home in Key West, and if you go visit the staff there still take care of their descendants.
Here's our Poly:
Hot damn! Those paws are comically big. It's like if a cartoon cat with big feet came to life but kept the disproportionate paws. Awesome!
I wanna see the boot not too big for the gd feet!
Call me crazy but I love it. Makes him even more cute!
I love stomp
That cat clearly belongs to Jeff Dabe.
