Meet Pickles, A 21-Pound, Three-Foot-Long Cat That Was Rescued And Adopted Last Year

Feast your eyes on Pickles, the cat. He's 21-pounds, three-foot-long, and was rescued, and adopted last year.

Nicknamed Catasaurus Rex, Pickles became an Internet sensation after the MSPCA of Boston posted an ad online, seeking a new home for the oversize animal. When Andrew Milicia and his girlfriend Emily Zarvos went to see the cat for themselves, they didn’t expect to fall in love. But that’s just what happened, and now they say he’s an irreplaceable member of their family. “He’s our son, we love him,” Zarvos says with a smile.

Though Pickles doesn’t play well with other cats, he loves cuddling with Zarvos, and taking up half of the family’s three-person couch. And, as you could have probably guessed, he has a large appetite. “He's kind of like a dog when it comes to food—he'll come in and sit right in front of you and just stare at you until the plate’s gone,” his owners shared. But, as Zarvos explained, they don’t mind these quirky habits; “I'm so happy we have him, he's the best pet you could hope for.”
