The 36 incher I have been looking for is out there, it is just a matter of time until we converge. Good info from Therapist and, of course, TD knows a thing or two about cats.I think you got it backwards. Females get both longer and heavier. But up to the 30 inch mark the males will be longer for the same weight as females. Never seen many males of 30" or longer. All the heavyweights are female.
When I finally catch that really big one, will it be male or female?? Seems to me that the males tend to bulk up in the head, shoulders,and gut with length sometimes appearing disproportionate to the size of their head. The females are more inclined to grow in length rather than having big heads. So, to answer my own question, I think the longest biggun will be female; the heaviest biggun will be male. Thoughts??
