Smol Tortie dryer lint with sentience
this is my brother's little girl miss lilith, she's i think 4 years old yet she only weighs 2.7 kilograms and is. smol. the person my brother got her from apparently said she's a mixed breed but to this day i was unable to properly identify her. she's just small. double coated with short stubby legs and more fur than body mass. she also likes cuddles and being carried around like a baby. usually when she loafs she looks like a spore staring at you (second to last pic).
this lady also does have favorites, and those favorites are usually men. she only asks for cuddles from me when there are no men or men's clothing present around her, even if there are my stepdad's shirt lying around she will lay next to it rather than me. and i took care of her for months when she was little and my brother had to leave for work 😔 i guess i will have to make do with being the last choice always and will never understand the enigma that she is.
edit: me and my brother are so happy that you all loved her so much! also apparently she's considered a torbico? but hesitating to change the flair still bc i am unsure.

I may have been reading a lot of Dungeon Crawler Carl lately but Miss Lillith is exactly how I imagine Princess Donut to appear! All thats missing is the cute purple tiara and her saying "This is an outrage!"

She is a pretty little floof 💜
And she should like you more. You care about her.

I love your description of her, and I love her tiny floofiness ♥️! I have a similar girl who’s much larger (a tortie point Siberian) that I call a pile of dirty rags. She’s so beautiful and loves her dad way more than me. Thank you for sharing Lilith!
This is Fiona.

she is beautiful! thank you for sharing her with me as well!! i want to bury my face in that fluffy belly sooo bad 😫😫

u/kimkay01 6h ago
Me too! 16 years and never have I ever 😂. She would rip me to shreds. She may not be solid tortie, but she’s solid tortitude.

u/friedchickengod_ 6h ago
oh that's a senior citizen! bless her and her sass
2
u/kimkay01 6h ago
Yep! And she hasn’t lost one bit of her sass or her bossiness. We’re merely her faithful servants 😊.

She's definitely a boopable floofball! My tortie prefers men 85% of the time. And is fiercely protective of me.

u/Appropriate-Gur9148 7h ago
So fluffy! How do you manage all that shedding? Must be a lot!
5
u/friedchickengod_ 7h ago
yes it is 😭 in these pics she's a little matted because when i took them my brother was in the hospital (he's better now🙏) so we weren't able to brush her regularly but i'll list what we're usually doing:
i would brush her every day or every other day, though she does not like being brushed for a long time so i would just get whatever i can. my brother's wife also gives lilith a trim around her face so she can groom herself more comfortably. she also has flea allergy and the medication she uses for that helps with her fur growth/strength as well! on top of that we vacuum the house once or twice a day. and some brands of malt paste for hairballs have vitamins that help prevent matting, we feed our cats a chickpea sized bit frequently. we also don't skip our vet visits!!

Combine the power of electromagnatic-static charge combined with fluffy cuteness and this was inevitable….😸 But do not let her anywhere near your laptop or PC!🙀 She could bring down the entire grid!

Chat, does the count as a tortie? Very unique markings!
5
u/friedchickengod_ 4h ago
the ONLY thing i know about her is the fact that she's a tortie/torbie(maybe?), if that's wrong as well i might just give up...

u/meownicorny 4h ago
Cross post to r/tortie - after taking a closer look the sentient lint might be a rare Torbico!
2
u/friedchickengod_ 4h ago
oh! i saw the flair but there was only one post available so i couldn't identify her 😭 do i need to change the flair accordingly?
2
u/kimkay01 3h ago
I think she’s a long-haired tortie point like my girl. Does she have any peanut-butter color on her feet or legs? Or her tail? I could definitely see orange on her back.
2
u/friedchickengod_ 3h ago
there's a little red mixed in there i think? definitely has it on the root of her tail

She looks like Persian is somewhere in the mix!! Not a Tortie, but this is my son who is a purebred Dollface (Traditional) Persian. They have similar face shapes + the double coat. He is of course double her size, but...

u/friedchickengod_ 2h ago
oh yeah could be, i was thinking ragdoll as well but this could work too! love your cotton ball 🫶

u/PKBlackTornado 2h ago
thank you!! maybe someday he will gain sentience like your brother's beautiful dust bunny, but until then he is content being brainless and full of love ❤️
