Meet Malf, a 3-year-old Siberian, who belongs to Isla DeFeo who calls him “an amazing cat.”

“This fat cat will loaf around not caring what is happening,” she writes in an e-mail she sent about her beloved cat. “Malf is currently almost 19 pounds! His little face will head butt almost everything in the morning never really minding what. Also, in the morning, he will scratch and meow at the door until you come out, making it impossible to sleep in.

“If you set out two cans of food next to each other with Malf, you are making a mistake! He will block the other cat with his head and eat both of the food cans. And he doesn’t really play too much with toys. He mostly plays when you put the toy in his face and annoy him. There are a couple of toys he will play with like the cat dancer. If you turn on his favorite video near him it sounds like a stampede because he loves the video so much. He will probably do the same thing if you try to print something. He is intrigued yet afraid of the printer though. This boy surely will bite if he doesn’t like you!”
