Simon is a massive cat I inherited from my little sister. He is extremely cuddly and likes to sleep on top of me- all nine kilos (twenty pounds) of him!

But do you nose bump, Simon?? ;p

Simon looks like a sweet cat, but he’s not as big as you’d have us believe. Nine kilos are only eighteen pounds, not twenty.
See? He’s really quite slim. 🙂
DogMom
Mafdet – No, not really. Simon’s Mommy (or Daddy?) was right. One kilo is 2.2 pounds, so nine kilos is 19.8 (round to 20) pounds.
Rhonda – “amazeballs” is the cool way of saying “amazing”. It’s just more fun to say “amazeballs”, isn’t it?
Simon – you are an utterly adorable kitty! Amazeballs!
Rhonda
What the heck is “amazeballs?”

I’m confused now.
1 pound is 500 grams, 1 kilo is 1000 grams, so 1 kilo is exactly 2 pounds.
So, in America 1 pound is 600 grams? Very confusing. I always thought the metric system operated on the same numbers worldwide.
