“Their nickname of ‘light large’ is well-deserved,” Sandra Cagain, proprietor of the Orlando Cat Café, says in an e mail interview with HowStuffWorks. “My two cats are every 20 kilos (9 kilograms), and they’re essentially the most light, candy and loving cats I’ve ever had. They are very well-mannered and by no means use their claws inappropriately and can at all times allow you to decide them up and maintain them — even when they would like to not be held.”
