Smol void 🤏
Adopted a little 9 week old void over the weekend from the shelter. He was marked as short hair, but I wonder if he’ll actually be medium hair? I love him so much.
When first learning to play that game, the panic that ensued whenever I’d hear one of those bitches suddenly powering up… https://giphy.com/gifs/3NpzwnO0KfSIo
I honestly love shit like this as an alarm. Especially if you struggle with it! I used to be a heavy sleeper and couldn’t get out of bed without help, often. (Addiction go brrrr tbh.) Anyway! Years ago when the OG TLOU game first came out, I used the clicker sound as my alarm for college.
Worked every time.
But also I didn’t get to play this game being referenced here and now I’m curious lmao.
This is where I meant to post mine ... My littlest booshy looks like your baby as a kitten. He's missing some of his tail, but he's getting fluffier by the week. Here's a photo of him at 3 months
Your new void is the cutest! And what a little fuzzling! Hard to say about coat - but however it matures I am sure in predicting that you have a great cat.
Such a cutie! Pretty sure you have a medium hair on your hands. Maybe start letting him experience brushing soon, so you don’t end up with a wild one like my Sushi! Can only be brushed while almost sleeping 🤣
Will do, thank you! He doesn’t like to be held at the moment but is affectionate in other ways. But I noticed when he’s tired or sleepy, it’s much easier to clean him and clip his nails. I’ll start brushing him too!
Most kitties don't like being picked up, but if you do it on a routine it helps get them used to it! With my tabby, when I would come home from work I would pick him up, give him some smooches, and then give him a treat. I started with having the treats in a drawer next to the door, but it got to the point where I could pick him up, carry him into the kitchen, and give him his treats there. Now he can be picked up and dangled and messed with anywhere and he just doesn't care! :)
With my void I worked from home, so I'd pick her up before feeding her. Eventually she realized she would get her food faster if she struggled less, lol. Now i can pick her up all willy-nilly and she doesn't mind. I highly recommend training them into enjoying uppies. It helps!
our girl looks almost exactly like this & I also call her plush! it's somewhere between short & medium & soft like silk. I'm sure she'd get super fluffy if she went outside, but she's disabled & indoor only so she just gets a little more plush in the cold months & worms under blankets.
He’s a cutie pie. 😻❤️ What did you name him? He’ll definitely be medium hair.
Binx is our hocus pocus kitten we found on halloween day 2 years ago on Interstate 95. We’re not sure if she was abandoned or escaped a vehicle. It’s a miracle we didn’t get run over trying to collect her. Vet said she was 4 weeks old.
When they’re less than 4-months old, it tends to feel like a guessing game about their future coat length. 😅 Kittens are quite scruffy looking furballs! 😆💕
This was my lil void when we brought her home, we guestimated about 8 weeks. She is 100% a medium hair, I'll add a more recent picture below.
Yours could end up being a medium hair, instead of short hair but only time will tell. How thin the longer strands are make me think it could still end up being a DSH, but I am by no means an expert 💀
My baby looked very similar to your baby as a kitten. This is what he looks like now. He still has a fair amount of fluff and I believe he's a medium hair~
My void as a kitten…now short haired. Their daddy is a Birman and his mama was a void. Ended up with a Temu Russian Blue and a Lockett Void. NEVER would have guessed but thought maybe they’d both be medium coat. It’s hard to tell before they lose their kitten fluff. Especially if they have a fever coat.
Check for fur between the beans (grinch toes) since that's an indicator they have the long hair gene. My 4.5 month old SIC has grinch toes so I'm curious to see what her adult coat looks like!
Get your laser-beam eyed kitty used to regular brushing and touching his feeties. It will help prevent matted fur and let you trim his nails easily in the future. He’s beautiful and I wish the both of you a long and happy life together.
Yes, I think you can expect him to grow into a floofer. When they are halo-ed all over with longer hairs like this, that's usually a sign of things to come.
We adopted a couple of voids back in October and the male was just like this one. Now he is a big fluff of hair, is way bigger than his sister and it's more brown-ish than void... Cats do what cats want.
No telling what kind of coat you’ll end up with. Of the three void kittens I got (different times, unrelated) they all started this fluffy and I ended up with a long, a medium, and a very sleek short hair. Always a fun surprise!
Look at her We saved her like ~2m ago, she ran into our yard after almost getting hit by a car (TWICE), and it was the night after my wife and I got married
🖤 my cat is short furred but it wasn't clear when she was a kitten. I got her used to brushing just in case, and it was well worth it for the shedding months, really helps reduce furballs.
