Dr. Dan Smith, a veterinarian in New York, told BuzzFeed News he’s not sure if Buff Cat suffers from a genetic muscle condition, but said, “that boy is an absolute unit.”
“There is a genetic mutation that’s found mostly in some cow breeds that is called double-muscling (look up some pictures, they look fucking swole!) and I’ve heard of rare cases of it in some dog breeds like Rottweilers and Greyhounds, but never in a cat. This might be the first,” he added.

here’s a wild thought but maybe the cat is just obese
I dunno, the top-down shows a pretty distinct waist, and the neck definition is pretty good- it’s kinda hard to tell with the fur in the way, but I really am reminded of the double-muscled whippet.
Especially how small the head is in comparison to the rest of the body. It’s a pretty simple mutation that’s risen independently across a few mammal species- it could probably do so in cats, too.
