cat she has ever heard of! Image Credit: Splurt Zillionz
Samson, a Maine coon, is four feet long and weighs 28 pounds! For
perspective, an average cat weighs between 8-10 lbs and is about 2 feet
long! It is not unusual, however, for Maine Coon cats to weigh between
15 to 20 lbs. Image Credit: Splurt Zillionz
According to his dad, Splurt Zillionz, Samson is a tender, sweet, but
tough guy. Samson likes to wrestle and loves to cuddle – only when no
one is watching! Samson is now 4 years old and has been living with his
dad in New York since November 2013. Image Credit: Splurt Zillionz
Even though the apartment in NYC are small, Samson always finds a
place to hang out. Samson also loves to go for rides in his green cat
stroller.
Every few months, Samson gets a $120 grooming session to keep himself
looking lush and fluffy! Samson eats six cans of wet food a day and
uses four pounds of litter a week. Image Credit: Splurt Zillionz
Samson’s groomer, Carolyn Ayala said he is long, broad, strong, and
heavy – he is not fat. He is well-proportioned. She called him a gentle
giant. Image Credit: Splurt Zillionz
Because of his size, Samson has been getting a lot of attention. He
is big news in New York and all around the world! Samson has over 34,000
followers on Instagram, his account is called @catstradamus. Image Credit: Splurt Zillionz
