Aww. Turkish Vans are some of the best cats.

Here's my big boy Coco

I also got to say he is a big cat, not fat but still over 7 kilo's and he will be the first to greet you when you are invited for dinner here. Very vocal, likes to talk when we have a conversations in between silence. Likes to scream when hungry but also got the relaxed 'hey bro' talk when in need of pets.

I need to lift him on bed now because of artrose, got him on pain killer just to be sure, but his blood values are perfect so we hope we can have him in our home as long as he has quality of life. We got him on BARF.

I have friends getting into a cat because ours is a sweet heart but we advised them to think hard about it, I am a cat person...but I never met a cat as sweet as Mimo.

I am very happy you mentioned Turkish Vans as I never heard about them, and he might be some of that. Thank you.

I don't suppose there's an uploaded STL for those glasses?

not normally Syke's vibe... but... he might like those too.

Sykes is my time-share cat; he comes over and visits occasionally, and I printed some of that spikey cat armor as a bit of a joke before sending him back home.

He likes his cat armor. (seriously. he demands for his people to clip it for him.) (and his EVA mando armor we made for him last halloween when we were doing costums for the niece and nephew... happened to have been cat sitting him and yeah. you thought gromgu-Mando was cute...)

I got it from here.

I definitely need to print out some cat armor when I get time. He's harness trained and knows if I'm strapping stuff to him, it means time to go outside and play; so he's cool with that.

You’ll definitely want to check size on the armor, what I did was measure from his neck to the base of the tail and sized it that way in the slicer.

Thanks for the link, warming up the printer :)

Same with those glasses. They fit Coco perfect at 100%, but he's nearly 20lbs. 80% fit better on other cats I tried them out on (but can't find any of the pictures).
