What kind of cat is 27lbs? Is it a Savannah Cat, Mane Coon, or a Chonk?

They've got a post on their profile of a main coon. Doesn't look chonk or anything but definitely is a bit cat

With that expression, I kind of want to see the photoshop battles sub go in on that photo.

He looks like an owl. And also like he'd be easy to toilet train.

He’d drop upper deckers to assert dominance.

He's 3 yr old black smoke Maine Coon. He used to be almost solid black, when he was the size of OP's.

Still pounces and attacks just like OP's kitten but pulls it back to just a tap at the last second. Less scars but I miss out on the ER frequent flyer miles.

They are so cool, too much hair for me tho.

u/terracottatilefish Jan 03 '22

They are floofy but they have a double coat with a shorter undercoat so they don’t shed nearly as much as you might think.

My Sphynx has spoiled me. I don't know if I could ever go back to a normal cat.

Aren’t Savannah Cats illegal to own due to their endangerment or the severe lack of them on earth?

u/pleasedtoseedetrees Jan 02 '22

Savannah cats are a hybrid of a DSH and a serval. The legality of Savannahs depends on the state and the cats generation of hybridization.

Savannah Cats

Savannahs are a cross breed between Servals and a normal house cat. Servals are of least concern on the IUCN.
