My sister adopted two inbred cats a while back. Two of the sweetest, dumbest things I've ever met. One of them, Tony (who we called the sewer monster, among, many, many other names), was stunted, so even at a few years old was no bigger than my current 4 month old kitten. Everything was stunted except for his teeth though, which seemed to be full sized. So he always had these vampire fangs hanging out of his mouth. He had to get them all removed too, which just made him look even weirder. Poor little freak of nature passed last year, miss his gummy little face lol

Here, have my other cat! He (Yoshi) is about 4 months younger than Nacho, poor thing hanged on to dear life at my dad‘s car’s beaks. We found him a day after my birthday and he was ~ 4 weeks old then. This picture is him after he lost half of his teeth (he’s toothless since almost a year now)

Here's our Sir Kitty (RIP 2004-2020) who also had a bunch of teeth removed. Without his upper teeth, his upper lip would sometimes get caught in his lower tooth. When that happened, we called him "our little orcling."
