Jumbo Pillow Squeezes into a Teacup

Unlike human, cats enjoy small space & don't mind to be in "economy class."


Here are some pictures and a video of Jumbo in his favorite spot, a cute jumbo teacup. You can see how he managed to fit in it, & how his body fills the whole cup.  He enjoys napping in this tight space.

Jumbo is definitely not a teacup kitten, he is 7 lbs now at 7 months, as heavy as other adult cats we have. He's a chubby big boy.

Speaking of teacup, some have asked us for advice of where to get kittens. Some breeders advertised kittens as teacup, a term that may sound attractive as it makes it sound like your kitten will remain small. But from our experience, it's a deceiving term because it could mean the kitten is the smallest of the litter & may be prone to serious health problems such as hernias that impede its growth to normal weight . Getting a teacup kitten could eventually cost you a lot in vet bills, not to mention an anxious heart.


P.S. Beware of NY Cats Cattery in Brooklyn where we got Marie, the teacup Himalayan. She had bilateral femoral hernia and required two major surgeries. The breeder refused to take responsibility. Also when we told him our vet suggested him not to breed the same parents again, he simply said that hernia had never happened in his cats. He continues to breed teacup kittens.
