Meet A Cat So Big People Think It’s A Dog

Sometimes, just like in humans, the growth hormones of cats don’t stop. And that lead to situations like this, where the cat is so big it’s nearly half the length of the owner!

Yulia Minina, from the small Russian town of Stary Oskol, bought her cat, Kefir, almost two years ago as a small kitten. But these days, most people think that he’s a dog.

According to the owner, Kefir is very smart and behaves rather calmly, even with an intimidating appearance. Whenever she has friends over, everyone takes a turn to stroke the cat.

Since Kefir is a Maine Coon breed, it is expected that his growth will continue until age three or four. The owner seemed optimistic that he is healthy and well, even with his extraordinary size. She assures the people that she doesn’t use photo altering software.

When Kefir was a kitten, he liked to climb onto the owner’s bed and sleep with her. But as he grew longer and longer, it became less ideal to do so, so a separate bed was necessary for him.
