I've been staring at, and comparing the fur patterns between the two photos for far too long now. That's 101% the same damn cat.

I love him.

That "not impressed" attitude is his trademark.

It's fantastic. I'm in love.

It’s good sword

Could very well be because the post is not OC, same markings, but most obvious tell is his signature distinguished gentleman pose.

He would however be illegally drinking because he’s not 21, unless he’s from Germany, drinking age over there is 16 years.

u/Eishockey Nov 17 '24

He relocated to Germany from Kharkiv!

u/Particular_Gur7378 Nov 17 '24

He is Ukrainian!

u/melissapiexo Nov 17 '24

Just checked, legal drinking age in Ukraine is 18 years, unless it’s beer, beer has no minimum drinking age according to Google lol

u/BlaBlub85 Nov 17 '24

Nitpicky correction: The legal age to be allowed to buy beer & wine yourself is 16 in Germany. Your still allowed to drink if your parents/legal guardians give you alcohol before your 16

u/Particular_Gur7378 Nov 17 '24

Sounds like my house growing up lol

u/Unhappy-Plantain5252 Nov 17 '24

Eh, he is European, we start drinking at the age of 12

u/Excision_Lurk Nov 17 '24

Legal drinking age in most countries is under below 21

u/lemonleaff Nov 17 '24

Maybe it's different in cat years.

u/enilix Nov 17 '24

*Unless he's from all European countries, not just Germany. And I'm also pretty sure most South American, Asian, etc. countries.

u/Luci-Noir Nov 17 '24
