It’s official*: cat-cousin Rodan, aged ten months, is bigger than Louis Catorze, aged fourteen years.
*By “official” we mean “not actually official at all”.
Obviously the sensible way to prove this would have been to weigh them, or measure them nose-to-tail. THAT would have made it official. But, because we were too stupid to think of this, we decided instead to, erm, photograph each cat with a Carmex lip balm for scale.


Unfortunately Catorze won’t spread out like Rodan. Every time I put down the Carmex, he curls around to look at it, making himself look even smaller. But we can all still tell that Rodan is overall just a longer, rangier cat, whereas tiny Catorze is a forever-kitten.
It’s only a matter of time before Rodan’s sister Mothra also grows bigger than Catorze, making Catorze the smallest cat in our family (and, possibly, in the world). However, what Catorze lacks in size, he certainly makes up in [we still don’t have a word for all the stupid shit that he does].
