The Real Puss in Boots

17 January 2010

Do you remember the kitty that is often compared to the Puss in Boots - aka the real life Puss in Boots? Today we will unravel the identity of this lovely kitty and his equally famous brother, an orange Scottish Fold who also had a famous picture that many netizens have seen and loved.

The real life Puss in Boots is named Beibei, a cream tabby Munchkin who loves to stand up to survey the area. His innocent look is shockingly similar to the one Puss in Boots from the hit animation Shrek. Beibei's owner, Jimmy Leo, has taken numerous pictures of this beautiful little guy. You can check them out below.

Beibei had a brother whom he loved dearly. His name is Baobao, a Scottish Fold who had won millions of people's hearts with his signature flat pose (see photo below). The picture was circulated all over the net. You can find it captioned in various versions at icanhascheezburger.com. Baobao passed away in 2008, but his flat pose lives on.

You can check out Jimmy Leo's photos at his flickr account: babykailan. Also, Baobao has a book for sale, you can click here to check it out.
