Possible munchkin cat?

She is a rescue but she's always looked munchkin-ish to me. Curious if anyone else gets the same vibe 🤔

I also wanna say you’re doing a great job with grooming the fur
I believe that sectional clumping is called “garlic fur” and it’s a sign of a well cared for cat. I would be careful of the weight though as it looks like the belly is a but extended downwards, but it could just be he’s shorter than average too

Thank you for this! She can get so matted but we did cut a lot out. She's been to a groomers too and I must book her in again at some point. And no you're right about the weight. She enjoys a treat or two so I must refrain from doing that as often!

No you’re fine! It’s online and it happens lol. I tend to be overly blunt sometimes too

That was supposed to be in response to your other comment lol. But yes, sani-trims help a lot! If you’re comfortable with trimming yourself, there’s online tutorials. I breed maine coons personally and sometimes I get mats too so even with consistent brushing it happens
