Retrospec Delivery strikes again

[5kotai]

Pochi Shibakaga shared a photo. 4/10 near Birch Hills Apartments

I think Retrospec sent me live... contraband, that's the word? Something that shouldn't be mailed in a box to a child randomly? Not that my guardian believes me, she thinks he's just a cute tabby cat that some really nice Retrospec employee gave me/had to give up. So did the vet we took him to, so for right now I just have an "active imagination"! Haha... Advice/recommendations for good cat food and toys would be really helpful, actually. He's really sweet, just jumpy.

WTF they mailed that in a box?? Σ(･口･)
That looks like the kind of cat that needs raw steak, not cat food...

that is a lot of animal shoved into a username

[5kotai]

It had air holes! He really likes it too.

He looks fancy, but that's... going to be expensive.

all from yuri purrsetsky i'm just too lazy for the coding

[catsudon]

Wait is that a tiny tiger because that looks like a tiny tiger

[5kotai]

I think? I don't know anymore, some people stare but others just move on like he's a regular housecat...

[tosa]

(He should probably be in class right now. He probably is in class right now. No class lecture is going to stop him from checking his RetroSpec between questions.)

Mewsei Sakameowto She called it a tabby?

[5kotai]

Pochi Shibakaga There are some stripes on him, but just his face and legs though...
Pochi Shibakaga I don't think that's enough to be a tabby...

[okitactless]

[Ugh all you people and your stupid cats

Except that tigers are better than cats so it's fine yams that makes no sense]

maybe you should call the zoo
just to be sure they aren't trying to get you arrested or something

[5kotai]

I wanted to, but Aunt Ryo said I shouldn't bother them. Even if it was actually a wild cat, calling the authorities would scare the tenants for nothing, she said.

replies from Lucy Takawda etc

[long_live_the_queen]

what the fuck
that's a fucking tiger???




Does he bite?

[The most important question.]

[5kotai]

I'm pretty sure he's a tiger. Not a normal patterned one, but still!

He does! But only when he gets impatient or people don't handle him right.

[cutenessproximity]

For a normal cat, you should check the ingredients list on food and make sure that at least the first two are some kind of meat product. It's also best if you feed them partly on wet food - the dry food is better for their teeth, but cats in nature are meant to get most of their fluid intake from their meals.

...I have no idea how much of that applies to tigers.

[5kotai]

I'm sure it helps, thank you! Otherwise I would have given him canned tuna.

Oh, I can ask the zoo for "research" purposes.

[sharplydressed]

there's no way that's a tabby （￣□￣；）
tbh the fact that some people think it's normal when it obviously isn't is just more reason to believe that it's not a tabby

[Why are things so complicated in this dang town now.]

[5kotai]

Tabby is a "coloring description", so it really says nothing about the breed.

He's a mix cat for noe and I guess I'll have to stick with it... Unless I want my aunt to tease me that I caught chuuni disease.

[notyourutopian]

It's pretty impressive looking, even if it's clearly not a tabby cat.
Did you try pointing out the odd features?
What did they say?

[5kotai]

I honestly gave up after he said my new friend was healthy, because it was a last-minute appointment on a busy day.

I think the least catlike thing about him is his ears, which I brought up! But, anything odd about him can be blamed on him still being young or a mix.

I don't know who owned him before me, but I wish I did.

[redarm]

thats definitely a tiger.
shoot man.
i know some tiger trainers, i can give you their number?

[5kotai]

Really? Thank you!

How do you know trainers? Do you work with animals too?

Honyaka Clawsaka

[korekara]

advice: let me come over and put my face in his belly

[5kotai]

I... don't think that's advice, but his belly is very, very soft! He'll also poke your hands with his paws and make silly noises.

[complementing]

Minyaako Aripawtos oh no he's so beautiful! Minyaako Aripawtos it looks like you've already gotten a lot of suggestions for the kitty so let me offer some for your house Minyaako Aripawtos get a really big cat scratching post Minyaako Aripawtos maybe multiple ones Minyaako Aripawtos your furniture will thank you

[5kotai]

Pochi Shibakaga He made a noise that I think means thank you!
Pochi Shibakaga Tabby aunt will appreciate it too.
Pochi Shibakaga Any ideas for the pouncing?
Pochi Shibakaga He's small now, but he's going to knock something over later on...

[outpunch]

Juzoo Sakakuruff A tabby? Idk
Juzoo Sakakuruff He certainly has the eye of the tiger
Juzoo Sakakuruff You should let the zoo guys know, I guess

[5kotai]

Pochi Shibakaga Will they believe me... or will I get in trouble for owning an endangered baby animal?
Pochi Shibakaga I should ask for help though.

[chiseler]

Steven Squawking that. is the biggest tabby I've ever seen then
Steven Squawking which is to say I can't believe this...are you actually keeping it?

[5kotai]

Pochi Shibakaga I think I will, because I can't drop him off at a zoo if they think he's a normal cat too.
Pochi Shibakaga Or if they do, I'm going to kid jail.
Pochi Shibakaga Also right now he is stuck on my lap.

[Regardless of the fact that it looks like it will grow into a creature that will be several hundred pounds (if on the small side), Morgan has a far more burning question.]

what are you naming it??

[Priorities.]

[5kotai]

[ tbh thank you for your priorities, morgnyan ]

Um. I don't know! This is a bit sudden...

still Pawsen Pawneda

[liberal_arts]

-...-

That is

-...-

Beautiful! This is a beautiful gift!

[5kotai]

Uh... I guess he's beautiful. Watching him walk and play around is kind of soothing.

from cootarou takao

[wordcarvings]

It definitely looks like he's a tiger.
I wonder how come people don't see that he's a tiger.

[5kotai]

That kind of worries me. Like do they not see "weird" things around them. Is it an illness or are people messing with me...

meowkoto tachibanya:

[splasher]

that doesn't look like a domestic cat...
have you tried meat? like leftover chicken, or something like that?

[5kotai]

He's definitely not. But I guess pretending he is saves some explaining.

Oh, I think he'll like that! I don't think some chicken will be missed.

[sparsity]

Micaw Tsuchuuyomi he's really cute
Micaw Tsuchuuyomi like that squishy dessert you had a picture of

[5kotai]

Pochi Shibakaga Oh, thank you!
Pochi Shibakaga He's kind of squishy too!
Pochi Shibakaga But not like a dessert.
Pochi Shibakaga Now I'm a pet owner, I guess.
