Ikki is so big and beautiful, and his fur is spectacular, he really looks like a miniature panther. Oh Zoe, I went crazy with that Jean's mini jacket, it looks very professional and now I want to make my cats little jackets like that, when you share the tutorial, please tag me in the comments! (β§ββ§)
I'll share something that caught my attention, those cheeks in male cats are pads that the body makes to protect the face in male fights, precisely its size is so because they are a manifestation that the cat is already in reproductive age, it is pure testosterone. I have cats that I sterilized early and they didn't have those cheeks, but my Kamui, who is very similar to Ikki, is 2 years old and I haven't sterilized him yet and his face has changed a lot, just like your cat.
I hope soon Ikki is ready for his surgery and everything goes well πββ¬ π€
Everyone who sees Ikki always says he looks huge, but according to me, he's small π but I do admit that he looks big compared to the rest of the cats in the house π Of course! I'll remember to tag you when I upload that tutorial; it's really easy, and I'm sure it'll be helpful to anyone who wants to do it on their own π
Wow... I didn't know that fact about cats' cheeks π―, and I thought it was simply the accumulated fat left over after losing weight (because when we lived together, he was much "fuller" π ), but after reading the information you shared, I agree with you. Since he still produces testosterone, it makes sense. My sister's cat, who is neutered, does have a belly, but his cheeks are super thin π But hey... I like to squeeze Ikki's cheeks a little when I pet him, because I think it's part of his "cat beauty" π€£
May God hear you! π It's a process because it's not just about having the money and finding a vet, but also having a suitable space for their recovery π’ but hey, I'm positive π
Thank you so much for visiting my post and for commenting, dear π€π
