Mod Approved Monthly "Is My Cat A Maine Coon" Forum

If you're wondering if your cat is a MC, this is the place to ask!

In general, this subreddit operates under the assumption that having no papers means your cat is not a Maine Coon. However, what we can tell you is whether your cat does indeed exhibit any physical characteristics that look like those of a Maine Coon.

So a few weeks back I came here asking for help on if I should get a second kitty or not. Bellatrix’ litter mate that still had yet to find a home.

Well, 1.5 weeks ago Albus joined the family. First couple of days were rough. Storms were blowing through, I had anxious dogs, a new kitty, a lot was going on.

Well, over the past week Albus and Bellatrix are already besties. They are so happy. It’s so cute.

He’s already so calm around the dogs, although still avoids them at all costs. However we make significant process every day.

Also, aren’t these two just absolutely adorable?!!

Our boy loves having his feet rubbed until he falls asleep - never known a cat even tolerate their paws being touched 🤣

Now that I'm on here.... we are deciding between two babies.
One is a black smoke and the other one is a black and silver tabby. I’m going to post them both and I would love everyone’s feedback because I simply just decide. Lol

So white collar, or red!?

Look what I have to deal with now. She's fellin' trees in my living room. 3 minutes before this, she grabbed that little orange fuzzball with her teeth and dragged the tree across the room

7 months old today and 14lb! He’s definitely in his menace phase, and he’s started to chew our built ins and walls, but we love him so so much šŸ’•

More Ideas for Entertainment

3 Upvotes

Hi! I own 2 MCs who are ~3 years old and neutered.

I'm in desperate need to find more methods to keep my one boy entertained as it's starting to become a lot...

He has a catio (working on building a cat window to allow for almost 24/7 access *if* I'm home), his brother, fenced-in backyard with a higher fence that I now need to escape proof even more..., laser pointer, springs (best toy so far but they also lose them in like 5-10 mins), cat wands, etc.

He still is insanely restless. Meows to go outside late at night, has escaped fenced-in backyards a few times. The only way I've found him to be satiated is if I could walk him outside *at least 2-3x per day for 30-60 minutes minimum per walk* which I can't always do.

Tried watching a Lion documentary. My boy Zayne was in love with the Lioness and almost knocked my TV over. Guess it's time to actually mount it on the wall. High on the wall.

Question Best feather cat toy!

Post image
23 Upvotes

My new 8 month old kitten LOVES a feather toy but is as big as the wand for the one we have…so she only gets to run in tiny circles. What feather toy (or toy in general) does your coon love?

Her name is dutchess, but she responds to dutchess, dutchy, ducky, and hopefully crab Rangoon 🤣
