What size is he? Is he from wharf?

 

[John2708]

No I did see the ones at wharf but I got him from a place near chesterfield he's roughly 12 inches

A few members here have them currently. My favorite cat. I had one but lost it and almost the rest of my stock after a wc one day.

Fast becoming my favourite cat I also have artc but he's still a tiddler and very shy

 

[moe214]

I found my artc to be more active and explorational which probably had a part in making him more territorial.

I like the wyckii better because it's simply more manageable and I like its looks better.

 

[John2708]

I agree from what iv seen of my short time owning my wyckii he's very chilled and not fazed by me at all were my artc he a total lunatic and doesn't like me at all
