In the springtime we brought in a mother cat and her 3 kittens. We found good homes for 2 kittens and kept the mother and one male kitten. Well... he's over 14 lbs. and 6 months old now. We just love them. His tail is huge. Everything about him is huge. He resembles a maine coon. They get along fine with our yorkie too. I'm so glad we did this. >In the springtime we brought in a mother cat and her 3 kittens. We found good >homes for 2 kittens and kept the mother and one male kitten.

I'm so glad we did this. Sounds like things turned out very well for the family. Fourteen pounds is *huge* for a 6-month-old. He's going to keep growing for probably another year, too. Sherry I bought a book on maine coons. There was one around at the time so we think he's half m.c. I don't care ..he's beautiful. We had him and the mom "fixed". I don't know How big he'll get being mixed but, he's so large already! Huge paws and very wide shoulders. He's hard now for me to pick up. My husband said he'll get me a saddle to ride him in the spring. Ha! >I bought a book on maine coons. There was one around at the time so we think >he's half m.c. I don't care ..he's beautiful.

Maine Coons don't stop growing until they're at least two. My daughter has one who is about 15 lbs., but the other one is near 30 lbs and doesn't have an ounce of fat on him. Sherry My kitten just turned 7 months old. He just keeps getting bigger. not fatt at all...just BIG. He's so beautiful that everyone trys to take him when they're here. He has a sweet personality too. > In the springtime we brought in a mother cat and her 3 kittens. We found good > homes for 2 kittens and kept the mother and one male kitten.

I'm so glad we did this. I've wondered about that. Maine Coones as a defined breed taken from the standard cat population have only been around a couple centuries and are basically just big, furry cats, so perhaps your cat could technically be called a Maine Coone. pat |
