Oh okay! Now that makes sense......

I thought you were being serious!

Some people really do believe there are teacups no matter how much you try to educate them (one in particular is a friend of mine who has a "teacup") She knows it's a "teacup" because the breeder told her it was a "teacup" (she has to be less than 1 and 1/2 pounds and just over a year old) and when I told her there is no such thing, she felt like the breeder lied to her and didn't sell her a teacup, and that's what she wanted to buy. So I had to explain the whole thing to her.
Can you imagine if I had gone on here and posted the whole "there's no teacup" spill to you?

I wouldn't do that to anyone though. Like my friend, she wants to believe she has a "teacup." But actually, wouldn't hers be a "mini" or a "micro-mini?"
Ok, seriously now, since this is my first litter, can you look at my weights and help me figure out if they are going to be teacups, teapots or standard?
I have a weight chart but it stops at 5 pounds.
