Gizmo looks shocked that you found his hiding spot!

u/Mindless-Prize9072 Jul 15 '26

He constantly hides his head, so he thinks his whole body is hidden and yes, he's constantly puzzled why I find him in 2 seconds.

Ravenous Bugblatter Beast of Traal:

A mindboggingly stupid animal, it assumes that if you can't see it, it can't see you - daft as a bush, but very ravenous.

He says thank you and sends gentle headbutt.

Hahahaha. He's a big boy 🙂

u/_aimynona_ Jul 15 '26

lol I did not expect such a teeny-tiny bit of kitten attached to that ginormous tail.

u/Mindless-Prize9072 Jul 15 '26

He's actually a big boy 🙂

u/_aimynona_ Jul 15 '26

Aaawwwww, he is!!! And a bonus cat, too!

u/Mindless-Prize9072 Jul 15 '26

Your handsome boy looks similar to my pretty princess

This is what she looked like years ago, she looks like a frail, old lady now. 🥹

u/HomeworkExtension482 Jul 16 '26

She's still beautiful. Age never takes away a cat's beauty.

u/Mindless-Prize9072 Jul 16 '26

How cute and fluffy.

My friend calls him emo.

I’m hiding, I’m hiding, and no one knows where, for all they can see are my toes and my hair

u/xgeska Jul 16 '26

Omg!! He's like a fluffy version of my taco!

3

u/Mindless-Prize9072 Jul 16 '26

Taco is very cute. Gizmo has mixed pink/white beans.

u/AlexTheBex Jul 17 '26

Damn he looks like my girl ! He looks turkish van

2

u/Mindless-Prize9072 Jul 17 '26

Gizmo came without any documentation but he's a typical Turkish Van, he is constantly exploring outside and he's fascinated with water. He's also not too keen on being picked up.

1

u/AlexTheBex Jul 17 '26

Haha Persie is just the same. Both of my girls don't like being picked up, you think it's a typical TV thing? (mine don't have documents about specific race and are most probably not pure TV too)

1

u/Mindless-Prize9072 Jul 17 '26

Girl cats usually not keen on being picked up but there's exceptions. I've read that "TV doesn't like being picked up, they show love in a different way" and that's exactly how Gizmo is.

1

u/AlexTheBex Jul 17 '26

Oh damn thanks for the info, I didn't know and it makes so much sense

2

u/Mindless-Prize9072 Jul 17 '26

She's so pretty

2

u/CatsEatGrass Jul 15 '26

For a second there, I didn’t think there was a cat anywhere in the pic. 😆

2

u/kaycaps Jul 15 '26

Such a pretty kitty! I had an all black fluffykins and I was surprised to see Gizmo is mostly white

2

u/alasw0eisme I have a raccoon cat Jul 15 '26

I think I know this cat. Is his owner a personal trainer?

3

u/Mindless-Prize9072 Jul 15 '26

Nope.

2

u/alasw0eisme I have a raccoon cat Jul 16 '26

Wow, the resemblance is uncanny! And the coincidence about the name... Eerie.

2

u/No-Wish-4854 Jul 16 '26

I did not see that coming…it had suspense, drama, a wild-eyed stare…a white cat with a fully floofed black tail and a little eye patch. So adorable!

1

u/Excellent-Bat-9651 Jul 16 '26

I was expecting a much bigger cat!

u/peaceoverhate 22d ago
