You’ve Probably Ran Into A “Buff Cat” Meme – Now It’s Time To Get To Know The Cat Behind The Meme

It's time to learn about the cat behind the meme once more, and this time it's "Buff Cat." The details on this extraordinarily buffed cat are scarce, but one thing is certain: this tabby cat is the real deal, not a photoshop creation.

Buff Cat was spotted on the streets of Montreal, Canada, by a cat lover who became so enamored with him that she launched a Twitter account to post videos and images of him. People were enthralled and began to flock to the scene.

The Official Buff Cat now has over 24,000 Twitter followers. But she hasn't seen the large kitty since that one encounter.

Despite this, she keeps an eye out for the colossal cat, and because of its viral fame, others are aware that they may also witness this legend strutting the Montreal streets.

Buff Cat was a smash, with more than 6 million views of the video of the large tab going up to say hello. "Every day I think about this buff cat I encountered last year," the kitty finder wrote in the message, indicating that he was moved.

The jacked tabby quickly became the topic of discussion in the comments section of the post. Twitter users had a lot to say about Buff Cat, from admiration, and suspicions of photoshopping to inquiries about his lifting program.

Some people also wanted to know if this friendly cat was all right because his appearance suggests something unusual.

Let's get to know him better:

Some enthusiasts wondered if the enormous boi was 'double-muscled,' a rare mutation of the genes that govern myostatin, a protein secreted into muscles that slow growth. A deficiency of this protein can lead to uncontrolled muscle growth, resulting in the double muscle appearance seen in cattle, dogs, and even cats.

And who wouldn't be impressed by this physique?

And if you are worried about his health, you don’t need to be. A

ccording to the experts, “This condition is not known to cause any medical problems, and affected individuals are intellectually normal. Myostatin-related muscle hypertrophy is caused by mutations in the MSTN gene. It follows an incomplete autosomal dominant pattern of inheritance."
