Is tiny Heed the world's smallest cat?
Could this be the world's smallest cat? The Guinness Book of Records is waiting until this little Munchkin kitten is fully grown to decide if he is a record breaker.

But Heed is well on track. At 14 weeks old he is just 3 1/4 inches tall, and weighs just over 2lbs.

Current record holder, Mr Peebles from Illinois, stands at 6.1 inches tall, and weighs 3.1 lbs. At eight weeks old, Heed could hide behind a tin can and he is still shorter than a roll of toilet paper.

2. Those munchkin cats are an abomination.
Their legs are too short to even jump and act like normal cats.

4. They can still jump up on things
They just have to take the long way. The chair, to the table, to the counter top.

6. Clawing their way up you leg to get started
Even if you are wearing shorts.
