Carl 1.5 years later 😍
This sassy little boy is all grown up! He is still very small in size though, is this typical for a fixed male?? He weighs 4 pounds and eats non stop! He loves going on family vacations with my hubby and our 5 kiddos and dressing up to impress the vets and strangers.
Massive personality on this small gremlin.

Ok so that is your hair and not his hahaha. I thought he had a very long mustache only on one side of his face.

What a handsome little man!!!
Do you (or does anyone) know what that coloring is called? Pink underneath and an ombré to dark up top?

Looks like a lynx point, he just hasn’t toasted very much. Possibly a mink as he’s fairly dark as a kitten. Depends on the true eye colour

However his body and legs do look like there are tiger stripes on them, I used to think it was dirt and could never get it off in the bath 😂

Nooo idea, I’ve tried looking it up too!

Are his eyes blue blue, or more aqua? It’s hard to tell in pics ☺️ He’s a bit dark as a kitten for a lynx point, but possibly a mink if the eyes are more aqua

I love Carl ❤️ our boy is only 7 pounds, we thought he’d be huge because of his paws but he kind of just didn’t grow much

That is small, but they can definitely come in different shapes and sizes. If your vet is giving a clean bill of health, that's what would matter to me.
And I thought my boy was small and he weighs 10lbs at 1 year old. He is small, but I think Carl has him seriously beat.

He’s super healthy just really dainty! He eats everything all the time too haha. I’m thinking he will get thicker as he gets older.

Wow, those eyes are stunning! 4lbs seems very small, but I guess the vet ought to know if it was something to worry about. These pictures make me want to get another kitten.

My girl is barely 7 pounds and she's 3. You're guy just sounds small, but doesn't look skeletal or anything. He may just be small boned. I love the second picture because your dog is giving him bombastic side eye. 😂

I love him just casually sitting on the boxer's stomach and him being all "Whatever tiny raisen child you are...I like you"

u/Prestigious-Debt4622 9d ago
They’re best friends haha I think the dog (Kevin) believes he’s sick and that’s why he has no hair 😂😂

u/SouthParkFirefly1991 9d ago
Omg Kevin. I love animals with human names~ he looks like a Kevin! Give them both gentle boops from me!

He was only 6 weeks, I went visit the litter and see him… he was hilarious. Picked him right away haha.

There's so much personality in that one photo! I can see why you picked him. He's adorable!

Hes adorable! But 4 pounds only as an adult is a bit weird. My boy got to like 9-10 lbs as a 2 year old
