::laughs:: Thanks about the bathrooms! We are very happy with them!!
Mo is actually a munchkin. He's got these itsy-bitsy legs (kind of like a dachsund) and he's a little bow-legged, too. My college roommate's mother bred them and Mo was born with severe scoliosis--his upper chest is deformed and his spine is very crooked, so they couldn't keep him and offered him to us. At the time, he seemed to be having breathing problems, but it turned out to be that when he ate dry food, it got stuck and choked him--so they thought he wasn't going to make it and gave us Chip, too--he was from the same litter, but born with long legs instead of short. (It's really funny, they have the same kind of spiral pattern on their sides and their eyes are the same color but people always assume they aren't even related.) No one thought Mo would live to be more than a year old. We switched Mo to wet food and in one month he tripled in weight--now he's 10 pounds and over 2 years old and according to our vet, healthy as can be!
This pic is a pretty good comparison of their legs, and this one is slightly better at showing how short Mo's are.
Which is a really long-winded way of saying that yes, Mo is very fluffy and soft and we think he's actually a dog pretending to be a cat, because he's an attention whore. ;)

I have no cat icon. This seems wrong.
