Could a kitten reallty be this tiny?

[Ellie]

Awww she's gorgeous 

Mine love hankie boxes too  The boys can't fit in them though 

[hOrZa]

Ah - found a pic - please ignore the Devil-eyes...

Don't be silly they are not devil eyes devils eyes are red


Those are serpent eyes

[Baggy]

I'll see if I can find a pic of Dinah that shows how dinky wee she is.  'Cos she's fluffy she looks bigger, but when you pick her up she's very slight - she has lost a little bit of weight due to age, but she's still tiny!

Naturally when she stands on you in bed and all her weight is on one paw she feels more like 2.5 stone 

Ah - found a pic - please ignore the Devil-eyes...
Here she is sitting in a box of tissues, she fits perfectly in the hole in the top

My latest foster is 2.54kg, there is a pic of her on her thread - think its called 'So much for a quiet year!!'

That is about Willow's weight and she is nearly 10

Maybe if it's one of these?

Awww, it is a cute little kitten.  If it really waqs that small it would be "snack sized" and probably get buillied by mice!

    bullied by mice !

OMG 2.5kg is teeny! Minxy Moo was 2.82kg at 12 weeks! I think we need pics of Dinky Dinah 

[Kittybabe (Ruth)]

Dinah would probably qualify as a teacup cat, she weighs about 2.5 kilos...still a cuddlebum though 

No way? 2.5?!!!! OMG she's half Lexy's size and Lexy isn't that big a cat

I like my cats to be big enough to cuddle 

Me too but I have to admit the kitten is very cute 

[Catjane]

That is so photoshopped!  You can see that the resolution of the kitty is much sharper than that of the hand! Plus the lighting's not quite right ...

[bunglycat]

I like big cats too -good job all 4 of mine are pretty big -Winston the biggest -around 1 stone i suppose and double to three times the size of a yorkshire terrier .

It's cute BUT there seems to be a trend (in America at least, but what happens there usually happens here eventually) towards what are called teacup cats.  As far as I can tell, this seems to consist of selectively breeding small cats (usually runts who may have more health problems than your average cat) and calling the resulting smaller than normal offspring a specific breed (but they are not recognised as a separate breed).  Such breeding is quite rightly vehemently opposed by reputable breeders over there.  So this kind of thing makes me very uneasy.  It's hard not to go "aahhh" but tbh I like my cats rather bigger than that!

sounds loosely like a debate about the issues associated with graphic ownership and the use of digital photography , but not a direct comment on this photograph or its veracity - given the 'loose' translation it is probably about how clever manipulation of digital photography produces images like this ...

It is incredibly cute, but can you imagine having something that small drifting around the floor at the speed kittens move - you'd tread on it for sure ...

[Garfield&Gypsy]

Aww! how cute is that! 

[berties mum]

I want one to take to work with me!    I was reminiscing the other day about when Bertie was 3 weeks old and used to climb up my trouser leg and fall asleep inside ... hard to believe now that he's a 3 year old, 19lb fat cat!

[Felix (Caroline)]

Sooooooooooooooo cute

[Bazsmum]

OMG!!! I want one! 

[Gail Bengal Slave]

Photoshopped but imagine if you realy could have one that small ..... how cute a little pocket sized kitty playing on your desk all day!!!! 

Now your talking 

[claws n purrs]

Photo has been created in some graphics software definately, but sweet never the less! 

Text translates as:

"For a long time I have been passing something similar with a client, the fact went that my I contract myself to make some takings and the client me exigia the negatives, thus tries to explain to him that those are of my property and that if queria such then serious another negotiation, that in the end does not manage to leave convinced it absolutely. In fotografia conventional I create is no doubt that is proprietor of the rights of such-and-such fotografia, since that has (independently of like) the negatives, slides and demas deduce it. We finished seeing something in in the previous forum of Fotografias of the members of SCC. That it happens with the Digital Fotografia, he is impressive the advances in this field that loses veracity, since we put ourselves to think if he is real (I talk about a fotografica taking) or is one fotogrtafia composed and a very important point was of your creation?"

Make sense to anyone? 

And, no I'm not fluent in Spanish - just pasted the text into an online translator!

Defnitely photoshopped, but cute!

[Mark]

This was the text in case anyone can translate?

Hace tiempo que me paso algo similar con un cliente, el hecho fue que a mi me contrato para realizar algunas tomas y el cliente me exigia los negativos, por lo cual trate de explicarle que esos son de mi propiedad y que si queria tales pues seria otra negociacion, que al final no logre dejarlo del todo convencido.

En la fotografia convencional creo yo no hay ninguna duda quien es propietario de los derechos de tal o cual fotografia, puesto que quien posee ( independientemente del como ) los negativos, diapositivas y demas lo deduce.

Acabamos de ver algo en en el anterior foro de Fotografias de los miembros de SCC.



Que pasa con la Fotografia Digital, es impresionante los adelantos en este campo que pierde veracidad, desde que nos ponemos a pensar si es real ( me refiero a una toma fotografica ) o es una fotogrtafia compuesta y un punto muy importante fue de tu creacion ?
