he's got powerful shoulders and is just big all over (handsome far beyond what is reasonable, as well).

He stands to peek over the counter and just about makes it, and that is three feet off the ground.

He's a gorgeous found cat, but he's definitely no wildcat, even though he goes primal every once in a while.
