My F5 SBT girl went to the vet for her checkup today, she was 3.9kg (8.6lbs) at 17 months of age. Of course I believe her littermate brother is hovering near 20lbs...

Not sure if you started collecting some younger values, figure it couldnt hurt.
Gambit, my male F4C weighs 11.5lbs at 7 months. I'll let you know what he gets up to when hes 1 year old if you'd like.

There are a quite a few posts with the younger cats and kittens so I'll see what there is and perhaps I'll be able to provide a growth range without specifics to generation. My guess is it will be pretty broad, not much different than what the various breeders have already stated.

I tried doing this method but I was getting really inaccurate results. Maybe my human scale is just not that nice.I bought a baby scale on Amazon for like $45 and it works well as long as I put a treat on there. It holds up to 44 lbs.

Not really. Just wrap some bacon around some roast beef and it will be off to the races with Mayhem. Even if I stuff him, he will run it off. He is very active, loves to chase / annoy / torment the other three cats in the house endlessly. He has a "poor" relationship with his brother and the DSH because of this.
Whenever John Popp gets around to posting he will tell you how brother Chongo is non stop activity and really doesn't cherish food any more than Mayhem or Rascal. Not finicky, just don't eat a whole lot.

Sorry, been crazy busy with some personnel changes at work.
Chongo is actually doing a lot better with food these days, primarily because his little brother eats everything in sight. Monte at 4 months old eats a minimum of a pound of food a day and sometimes more diving at the other cats dishes. Him and Chongo certainly burn a lot of calories each day and the items they turn into toys just keep getting larger and larger.
Monte is now 9lbs 14 ozs and Chongo is 16lbs. I'm sure by next summer Monte will be bigger than Chongo and it will be interesting to see how they sort things out. It's funny that I don't think of Monte as anything other than a kitten despite his size although others assume he is a full grown cat. Without the spots to let people quickly identify him as something else he's just a regular size cat with long legs and big ears.
