Why I am NOT a Frootbat

I submit as evidence this photo where you can clearly see how freakishly large Kaze's ears are and how cute and normal mine are. Also, I'm not a purring freak. In fact, I only purr when it is necessary and even then, I can easily resist purring when being pet or snuggled. Further more, I actually enjoy eating my food and would certainly rather eat than play with a silly toy. There are many reasons but I feel this photo is evidence enough. Obviously, I am NOT a frootbat.

Edited to add: I do think having big ears would be a plus and I really like other frootbats, I'm just saying I think Kaze is a freak in general. No offense to other frootbats like Cheysuli who happens to be the most gorgeous cat on the earth.

I am not a frootbat either Latte, but I still like Kaze's ears. I'm not much for purring, although I have been suprising Meowm lately...and I always eat my food.....I would eat more if Meowm would only give it to me!

We aren't frootbats either but we do like frootbat ears! We both purr alot and sometimes I (Willow) even purr while I am eating!

Purrrrs,

None of us is a froot bat eethur, but I think sometimes bigger eers wood be helpful. Like when mom and dad are wisperin bout us in da uther room!

Daisy said...

Very interesting side-by-side comparison. I would have to agree, in that photo, you do not look frootbatty. But you do look very handsome!

ps: look at the expression on Kaze's face! hahahahah.

Latte, Cheysuli says that when you called her a frootbat, you said it was a term of endearment. So why isn't htat true of you too?

LZ said...

I like OTHER frootbats, I just don't think Kaze is an attractive frootbat. Her ears are GINORMOUS. I admit that larger ears would be beneficial but her's are just huge. Chey has lovely frootbat ears. As does every other frootbat besides Kaze the freak.

But Latte, aren't Meezers supposed to have Frootbat ears, at least modern Meezers? The Cat Fanciers' Association breed standard for Siamese says, and I quote: "EARS: strikingly large, pointed, wide at base; continuing the lines of the wedge." You are a handsome Meezer, though, frootbat ears or not.

That's a great comparison photo of you and Kaze. I happen to like Kaze's froobat ears. I think she's a beautiful cat. But since you are "siblings" (not biological, but you live together) it's natural for you to feel otherwise.

I'd like to see that picture!!! And yes, I have a kitty-husband coming home, some time this year...But my sister, Kaia, is still single. Maybe you can help me find her a "love interest"???

LZ said...

You're right Dragonheart- modern show meezers are supposed to have prominent ears. Kaze is an OSH so obviously the ears are what defines her. I'm kind of a inbetween meezer where I'm not an applehead (like Sammy or Miles) but I'm not a wedgie (like Chey or Stella) either. They call me "classic" as I'm a mix of both worlds.

mommy loves your eyes in that pikshur - she says that each meezer has a different shade of blue eyes - we doesnt' know if that is true - but your eyes are furry nice.

Leona said...

We think your both beautiful- big ears and all!

Karen Jo said...

I like your ears, Latte. They fit you perfectly. I agree that you are not a frootbat, especially compared to Kaze. Thank you for visiting my blog.

Latte, frootbat or no, we think you're a magnificent meezer!

No yoo don't look like a frootbat, but yoo bofe look lovely in dat pichur.

Unknown said...

Yoo know, bro, I hate to differ with yoo, but altho my frootbat is a freek, yer is NOT. In fakt, nothing aginst Chey (she's a looker), but Kaze is the most byootiful, gorjus, purry, sweet, expressiv gerl cat ever to set foot on the face of the erth. Yoo must be blind not to see it.

Nice chare!

LZ said...

Aw, Mao!! *blush* Thanks for sticking up for me! You make me feel beautiful and that is nice because Latte & especially Chase are always making fun of me. So there Latte!! HaHa! Your role model thinks I'm pretty.

Tommy and Teaghan said...

Yur right - comparing yoo side by side yoo don't look like a frootbat. Frootbats are purrty cute tho. But yoo has yur good points (ofur den yur ears). We finks you bouf are simply stunning.

Kimo and Sabi said...

You are DEFINITELY not a frootbat - yet another example of a handsome meezer!

Rosie & Cheeto said...

Yeah, yer ears are abowt half the size of Kaze's frootbat ears! The one thing yoo bowth have in commun is that yoo are part of the "adorubly cute and fotogenic" speeshies!

Rascal said...

No, not a frootbat, but you have exquisite ears none the less.

Tara said...

I think you are both lovely FROOTBATS! Its perfectly OK to be a meezer and a frootbat. I agree, you are not as frooty as Kaze, but you still have pretty cool ears. I'm like you, pretty much a "classic" meezer, and consider myself an honorary frootbat.
