White Norwegian Forest cats- Wonderful Photos

By VG -
These are just plain wonderful photos of white Norwegian Forest cats. I went to flickr to find more photos to show the differences I see between Norwegian Forest cats and Maine coons, to follow up on an earlier post here. And, then I found these stunning photos.

There are a lot more in this flickr set Noé et Oracio des Fines Terres from noeoracio. I chose just a few of the many that are available under the Creative Commons License. I give the links for the individual photos at the bottom of this post-- I don't want to interrupt the visual flow of these fine photos with text.

    Hi Silvia- I will try to figure out how to look at your photos of your white Forest cat! I would love to see them.

    And, just so there isn't any misunderstanding, these are not my cats- I found the images by searching the flickr site, looking for photos that were available with a Creative Commons License- meaning I could "distribute" them.

    They are great photos! If you click on the links you can see more from the same person who has a lot of photos of the Norwegian Forest cats.

    Silvia- I just went to your blog here and found your photos!

    They are great in showing what a Norwegian Forest cat looks like- there is only one person who regularly posts many photos of white Norwegian Forest cats (the ones I linked to on flickr) so it's good to have more available.

    I know Blogger is a total pain, but try to figure out how to tag the images so that more people can find your photos. I can't explain this easily, alas, and it took me a while to figure out!

    Hi all, I have a beautiful white female that I adopted from the animal sheltie when she was about 9 months, she had short fur and was kinda scrawny. Now she is big not fat and beautiful with long fur and a very fluffy bushy tail.
    I've been trying to find out what breed she is. At first I thought she was a Nain Coon but now I'm thinking she looks more like a white Norwegian Forest cat.
    Does anyone know how I can tell which breed exactly she is? Thanks, Josee

Is Cartoon Cat a creepypasta?

One person answers the question on a forum website and they say that Cartoon Cat is not a creepypasta. Yes, there was one answer to the question. Now there are two!! What is creepypasta? Who is Cartoon Cat? As I understand it, "creepypasta" is a sort of slick, hip but misleading description for unnerving stories posted on the Internet designed to shock people.  It seems to me that the scary Cartoon Cat could be involved in a creepypasta story. His whole reason for existing is to scare people and create creepypasta so I disagree with the guy who says that Cartoon Cat is not creepypasta.  I think I see the point, though. The individual character called Cartoon Cat is not creepypasta because he is an individual. However, he can be involved in creepypasta horror stories because that's his purpose in life. Phew, I think I've got that out of the way. Cartoon Cat. Photo: Fandom.com It is a bit surprising because when I went onto the search engine Bing looking for "ca...

A  harlequin cat is a cat with a predominantly white coat and a few colour-patches. The picture shows you: Harlequin cat. Photo: Buzzfeed Harlequin cats are not a cat breed. We are describing a type of cat coat. The pattern is caused by the white-spotting gene (piebald gene) which masks the cat's true colour. It usually appears in irregular patches. favouring the lower parts of the body.  Associated:  White spotting gene charts Other variants of white and black cats caused by the white spotting gene are: Mitted: white paws Locket: white patch on chest Buttons: several small white belly-patches Bicolour: half white and half coloured in patches Harlequin: as mentioned above Van: white coat with inverted V colour patch on the top of the head near the ears and on the tail Tuxedo: black cat with white legs, underside and chest or just a white chest Jellicle cat: black and white cat sometimes called jellicle cat.
