Know what you mean.  Our dear departed ginger tom generated the following
comments from delivery guys:  

1 - "Hey mister, you're dog's got out"

and:

2 - Did you know your cat's pregnant?

Our vet had him on record as the heaviest cat they'd come across at 7.5kg
(multiply by 2.2 for our imperial users out there).

Best wishes.

I'm lucky if my cats jump at anything, especially the diabetic Ginger Tom!
Some peeps say he's bigger than most dogs they know, I dunno, the last time 
I saw him he was tiny and asleep in my hand!

And now, on blind pets r us, we've got miss peggy simpson and her 5 legged 
terrier...
