June 5, 200917 yr My latest baby is a tiny little black and white four year old with a lot of Maine Coon in him: Ghost is a tiny little thing, weighing a bit over 21 pounds. The other cats here weren't happy about another one coming in, but he's too big for them to do anything about it. Things have calmed down, and the other cats have more or less accepted him (probably better than they accept each other). The big guy is a dedicated lap cat, and likes to help me at the computer. He's a big friendly cat, and he's finally found a permanent home.
June 5, 200917 yr Maine Coons are awesome awesome cats if you can tolerate the huge fur shedding cos the bastards shed the stuff like they make
June 5, 200917 yr I can only imagine what Shadow has to say about this "tiny" fellow! Laser-pointer fest at Hirsch's.
June 5, 200917 yr I've met Ghost -- quite possibly the greatest cat ever. Drools, though. But that's because he's just so happy to see you.
June 5, 200917 yr Cool cat, and congrats on having a new little monster (wait, that's mine I'm talking about) in the home.
June 5, 200917 yr Ghost looks awesome! I had a mostly Maine Coon years back and he was one hell of a cat. He adopted the ex and I by hanging on the kitchen screen for days on end until we finally let him in. He spent the next 18 years with us and was an amazing cat. He used to bite the ex-wife on the head in the morning to wake her up! Sending Ghost more head rubs and a belly scratch (if he is into that).
June 5, 200917 yr Very cool. I had a half-persian that was like that. You could brush him for hours and he would still be shedding. I miss having a cat sometimes.
June 5, 200917 yr He adopted the ex and I by hanging on the kitchen screen for days on end until we finally let him in.That's such a great image.He used to bite the ex-wife on the head in the morning to wake her up! Mine sticks its butt in my face, I'm not sure which is worse.
June 5, 200917 yr Mine (also mostly Maine Coon) will occasionally sit on my chest and whack me in the face to try to get me up, but she doesn't bite, claw, or butt. If I'm at the computer she'll come and stand up against the armrest and literally tug on my arm to try to get me to bust out the laser pointer.
June 7, 200917 yr I love Maine Coons. My parents have one who is pretty big, though she isn't quite as big as yours. Our Maine Coon, on the other hand, is a tiny little thing, though she'll probably fill out a bit more as she's only year old. Edited June 7, 200917 yr by Salt Peanuts
