I have just weighed Simba too out of curiosity - the last time was when he was small enough to fit in the kitchen scales and he was about 2.7kg. This time we did it on the bathroom scales with my daughter holding him and then taking her weight away and he was 4.2kg but not sure how accurate that is but I can't believe he has gone up that much already - did think he was looking bigger though

Our male Zephyr went to vet at 5 1/2 mos and was 9.9lbs (~4.5kg). What turned out to be really amazing was that by 7mos (just 6 weeks later) he was 13lbs. That means he put on 3lbs in just 6 weeks between 5 1/2 and 7mos old. An incredible growth spurt of half a pound per week. He ate incessantly during that time. Now, at nearly 9mos, he is over 15 lbs. That means he already outweighs both of our girls. Interestingly, his frame is not noticeably larger than the girls, but he is much more solid than either of them. Our older male was only (?) 14lbs at one year, so Z is on track to be larger.

Ok, well it's taken me about 10 minutes to do this lol, but I put Harry on the digital bathroom scales and he registered 4.1kg, so about the same as Louis-Louis and Simba. He is also about the same weight as Poppy (my lovely little moggie) and doesn't she know it He's definately longer, my neighbour said the other day he reminds her of one of those bendy buses ! - nice eh lol x
