What a beautiful day to stay home and enjoy the nice weather from bed with an open window to let in the gentle breeze and not interact with people at all.

Is there a therian flag for a tortoiseshell cat or tortoiseshell coloured mainecoon or just a mainecoon flag?

Here is a tortoiseshell/calico cat flag! The colors are of course for the coat colors of these cats. The 3 lines in the middle are for both the 1 male for every 3000 female calicos/torties, as well as the XXY genetic pattern of male torties (males with this coloration are always intersex).

Maine coon flag! The wiggly stripes on the side are representative of the range of colors maine coons can be. It also represents the smokey, wispy fur on their ears and cheeks. The two trees on the side represent the size of maine coons in comparison to other cats. They are also a feature of Maine's state flag, where the Maine coon originated. The star in the middle of the Theta Delta is another feature of the Maine state flag.

Does anyone know the source? Because I searched high and low and it remains an enigma.

Source has been found!

This cat appears to have garnered a lot of attention around May 3rd - 4th, that’s when most of tue reposts are from.

I found the image on a couple of French and Russian sites, so there’s definitely something my phone’s auto translate could’ve missed… but I didn’t get the impression that any of those were the source, they seemed like repost forums.

The earliest iteration I found is this image set of what appears to be the same cat shared by HerbziKal on the subreddit r/RealLifeShinies around the last week of March.

This same set of images were shared on April 8th by mikochen2005 on Imgur, who commented that this is a “Russian Maine” when asked the cats named and “Priceless” when asked this cost.

This also appears to be a repost account but also shared this image set on May 2nd and is the only place I’ve found both full image sets together (at least so far).

All that being said this very interesting Maine Coon is a bonafide chimera, a combination of blue (dilute, recessive) and red (non-dilute, dominant) which should not be able to present simultaneously.

once upon a time i wanted to draw the pokebosses all as cats and i finally got around to finishing it 😼 i like the idea of interpreting them as regular #normal cats.... some thoughts and hcs for them below the cut bc its fun to stink about

giovanni- classic tuxedo tomcat. well taken care of but spends a lot of time prowling around... kind of the leader of the local outdoor cat community. social and charming but will always win a fight if challenged

maxie- very vocal siamese... usually stays indoors but occasionally goes out + likes to roll around in dirt. standoffish and doesnt like to be pet + gets into fights constantly with the annoying tabby next door

archie- scruffy long haired tabby who spends most of his time outdoors, esp by rivers to stare at the fish... very friendly to everyone but likes picking fights with the stuck-up siamese cat next door

cyrus- exclusively indoor tiny sphynx. glares at all the outdoor cats through the window on his tall perch

ghetsis- fluffy male tortoiseshell. nobody knows where he lives, seen outside a lot but always well-groomed and well-fed. charming so you let your guard down and then he swats when you least expect it

lysandre- massive purebred maine coon... extremely pampered and only gets the royal treatment from his owners of course. rarely goes outside and is grossed out by all the outdoor cats and their dirty coats

guzma- huge scruffy tabby, rare ghost coloration. escaped his home young and became the leader of a group of feral stray cats... aggressive and REFUSES to get caught by humans without putting up a fight

lusamine- purebred ragdoll... very fancy show cat part of a line of them- never ever goes outside but likes chatting with the outdoor cats through her custom built catio screen. always showing off her kittens

rose- purebred british shorthair, very friendly but out of touch and gets picked on by the other cats due to his pampering and rarely going outdoors. skittish and picky about his food

colress- russian blue. nobody knows if hes a well taken care of stray or an outdoor housecat, but travels far and wide and never stays put for long. the cats think he and ghetsis might be from the same household(?) but nobody knows the truth
