i miss the lil dwarf cat francis
0 notes
I have a tiny dwarf tuxedo cat that hates every other pet she has ever encountered, so when I got my leopard gecko about 2 years ago I was worried she would be angry.
She just chilled outside the gecko’s terrarium, just kinda Watching. The gecko hated every other animal except my cat… then it hit me:
THEYRE THE ONLY TWO WITH BRIGHT GREEN EYES- it’s eye color racism??????

Dwarfism in animals refers to a condition where individuals are notably smaller than the typical size for their species. This phenomenon can arise from various factors, including genetic mutations, selective breeding, environmental conditions, hormonal imbalances, or nutritional deficiencies.
In dogs and cats, certain breeds are predisposed to dwarfism through selective breeding practices. Examples include the Dachshund with its characteristic short legs and the Munchkin cat, which has been bred for short limbs. Horses may experience dwarfism due to genetic mutations or pituitary gland malfunctions, while miniature horses are intentionally bred for their small size.
Francis was found by construction workers as a kitten in 2010 and was diagnosed dwarfism.
Pigs, such as teacup pigs, can exhibit dwarfism through selective breeding, and true dwarfism may occur due to genetic factors. Dwarf rabbit breeds, like the Netherland Dwarf, are naturally small due to selective breeding, but genetic or environmental factors can also lead to dwarfism. Birds, fish, and other animals may also experience dwarfism, influenced by genetic mutations, selective breeding, hormonal imbalances, or environmental conditions.

Not sure if anyone's made a post like this before but Red dwarf really is the show of all time
It's got a genderswap episode, its got a bodyswap episode, it's got multiple clone episodes, plenty of alternate universes and a simply iconic musical number despite the fact that its not a musical show by any means
theres a trans computer, two counts of mpreg, insane levels of homosexual behavior and a robot who goes through a midlife crisis
it's got the most repressed man in existence who also happens to be dead, literally the most optimistic last human alive (seriously, how is he so positive all the time) and a dude with frankly the best wardrobe ever who also happens to be literally a cat
Theres dodgy BBC budget practical effects (which I love), copious moments which are insane in and out of context, sets that are held together with blu tac and a cult following that could probably once destroy anything
It's got that season which not many people like to talk about (cough 8, cough), one of the creators left halfway through and they've all been doing It for over 35 years and are still going somehow
God I love it so much, it really is the show of all time
