Is there a cat underneath all of that hair? You know, I asked myself the same thing when I first saw this picture. Named Colonel Meow, this Himalayan-Persian mix held the Guinness World Record for a cat with the longest fur back in 2014 with fur strands averaging nine inches in length! One of his favorite pastimes is sitting atop his cat castle and watch the world go by below him.

Interested in learning more about the late furry feline? No worries, he still has his own website, Facebook page and YouTube channel! Watch this video about Colonel Meow and who he was as a cat.

A Unique Love Story

by

19 years ago, photographer Miyoko Ihara began taking photos of the extraordinary relationship between her elderly grandmother, Misao, and her tiny kitten, Fukumaru. Over 12 years of memories are captured in the photo book, Misao the Big Mama and Fukumaru the Cat, documented by her granddaughter. The best seller portrays the extraordinary friendship between the two in their everyday lives – farming the land, cooking, or simply relaxing.

Misao rescued her odd-eyed white cat back in 2003 when she found her abandoned in a shed. Fukumaru, which means “good fortune” and “circle” has heterochromia. Heterochromia, which means different (hetero) colors (chromia), is used to describe the condition where a person or animal have different colored eyes. This condition is popular among certain cat breeds such as the Turkish Van, Turkish angora, Japanese bobtail and Sphynx. See more fun adventures of these two and their pawesome companionship.

If you are lucky enough to own a Siamese cat then you know just how special this breed is. Known for their distinct coloring and dark points against a light canvas this kitty grew popular back in the 19th century. Endlessly curious, smart, and demanding this feline will “talk” to you all day, providing its opinions on everything from food to what’s going on outside. Siamese love to be around their people and when their people are not around these beautiful felines will surely entertain themselves with just about anything they can from opening cabinets to turning on the faucet. Siamese might even walk on a leash or play fetch for you too.

Seal Point, Blue Point, Chocolate Point, Lilac Point, Cream Point, Red or Flame Point. Siamese cat coloration can be just as elaborate as their personalities. Read more about their unique fur patterns. Which one do you own?
