Maine Coon Cats
Hello Group,
We have a Maine Coon Cat. It was obtained from the Humane Society The familly that adopted it brought it back and tied it to the fence that night. It was a very young kitten. They tossed it into the basement with me where it ran nostop for several days around the pool table. I don't care for cats so I left it alone two weeks later it was perched on my shoulder as I did my work on the computer. Then of course it spent as much time as possible on the keyboard. Questions. This cat is not very bright. Is this typical of main coons. The other cats are tiger cats and seem smarter than this cat. My daughter loves the cat and tries to carry it around. The cat of course hates my daughter. The cat is willfull. If it is lying on the floor and someone picks it up, it will hurl itself off of the person holding it and go back to the exact same spot it was in before being picked up. The other cats tried to teach it how to catch and eat mice. All it does is smell the mouses behind. The cat is a screamer. It screams when it is angry,scared, or playing with the other cats. This is the loudest scream I have ever heard. The first time I heard it I honestly thought it was a tornado siren. It has to know what you are doing at all times. The first time it saw me go into the bathroom and close the door it screamed until I let it in. Is this a normal cat or did its mother have a substance abuse problem when she was pregnant with it. Where did it come from, arn't maine coon cats expensive. Does one maine coon have to breed with another or can any two cats create a maine coon Are main coon cats native to this planet? Main coon Cats are supposed to be large. This thing is 5yrs old and really puny. I will save my other questions until tomorrow. Thanks Jim |

In article ,
enlightened us with... I will save my other questions until tomorrow. All normal and this is not a Maine Coon, it is a Domestic Longhair (i.e. a mix breed with long hair, available all over the planet). Actually, he sounds just like my old Tom. *miss you, buddy* You're lucky to have him. ------------------------------------------------- ~kaeli~ Jesus saves, Allah protects, and Cthulhu thinks you'd make a nice sandwich. http://www.ipwebdesign.net/wildAtHeart http://www.ipwebdesign.net/kaelisSpace ------------------------------------------------- |

The vet told my daughter it was a maine coon cat. Don't people who's
cat mates with a different breed dispose of the young It kinda acts like a maine coon cat stand offish, has to be involved in everything. Looks exactly like the pictures of a maine coon cat in cat books, loves to stand on the very edge of the house roof and watch what everyone else is doing (i.e. loves heights). But it absolutely positively hates snow. But I agree that there is a strong possibility that it is not a Maine Coon Seriously I doubt if there is a telling if any cat is a thorough bred. Is there? I love the old saying if it looks a duck, walks like a duck, sounds like a duck, it's a duck! On 04 Nov 2003 18:52:39 GMT, ospam (Yngver) wrote: Jim Warren wrote: Questions.

How do you know this cat is a Maine Coon, btw? My daughter loves the cat and tries to carry it around. The cat of course hates my daughter. The cat is willfull.

He's trying to teach you to treat him with respect and dignity. The other cats tried to teach it how to catch and eat mice. All it does is smell the mouses behind. The cat is a screamer.

Is this a normal cat or did its mother have a substance abuse problem when she was pregnant with it. Normal enough. Where did it come from, arn't maine coon cats expensive. I doubt it's a pedigreed Maine Coon. Does one maine coon have to breed with another or can any two cats create a maine coon No, Maine Coons are purebred cats. Perhaps your cat just looks a bit like a Maine Coon. Are main coon cats native to this planet? Main coon Cats are supposed to be large. This thing is 5yrs old and really puny. It's not a Maine Coon then. I will save my other questions until tomorrow. Thanks Jim |
