He does look like a big fluffy, and very relaxed, cat.
I think long haired cats are a bit more work than a random domestic short-hair, since they do need more brushing. Kai wasn't keen on brushing, so I didn't do it a lot, and ultimately he wasn't keen on living here at all, so that became a mote point.
(He must be quite elderly now, but the neighbours who he adopted have since moved, so I don't know how well he's doing).
