What do you think is most shocking about the Maine Coon? 🐈

[Bogie]

We got a male MC cross that had been returned to the shelter twice and he was not in a good headspace. After a few years he has become the sweetest boy. That, and he has given us a dozen dead mice he has caught in the house in the last 2 weeks and has blossomed into a VERY happy kitty that purrs at a touch. He knows he is much loved and such a handsome boy.

[Bogie]

We have a 16lb male MC cross blissfully asleep on his heated bed in our catio. He is by FAR the most pleasant cat we have had the pleasure to enjoy. And he is such a gentleman. NOT a single bad habit and is also an accomplished mouser as well. Apparentlty he had been returned to the shelter twice when we got him. He is such a happy boy these days and will actually stay in the backyard when he is outside. Never seen a cat do that. smart too and when he wants something he will come and get one of us. He talks to us too with trills and chirps. Such a sweet boy.

[Mama-Ames]

Bless you for mentioning adoption. There are so many, TOO MANY beautiful, innocent kitty angels living in shelters, each of them truly worthy of a loving forever home.💗X💗O💗

[janb]

My brother just got a free Maine Coon because his friend found 2 kittens not realizing what breed they might be. He is literally the cutest kitten I’ve ever seen and I work as an animal nurse. He looks like a Pixar character, he’s so adorable.

[Nannerchan]

I have two of them and one that I adopted from the shelter. They are the best. As is a Ragdoll.

[leekelly]

I’m getting a Maine Coon Kitten in August after my beloved cat sadly died, I hope the new kitten will give me as many years of love than my cat did..

[chriskappert]

The most chocking they seem to love water ! 😂😂😂

[nemesis]

So, cat hardware but a bit of dog software ?

[huskiesgo]

What did I adopt from the shelter??? Morris is a 30" long 20lb tabby with a cranky disposition.

[Superstuff]

Love Maine Coons but your opening statement about size is not correct, you stated they get up to 20 lbs, I’ve had 2 males, my first reached 22 lbs and my current one is just over 26 lbs and almost done growing. They reach full size and stop growing after 4-5 years old, he’s almost 4 years.

[GingerPeacenik]

20 pounds? My beloved boy Thorin Thunderpaws was 31 pounds, and not obese.

[moxie-proxie]

I had to put down my Maine Coon last Saturday. He was the most amazing animal I’ve ever had. We called him the “monk” cat because he would bite, scratch, or injure anything. I miss him so much!😢

[Larzang]

I prefer "Long-Tailed American House Lynx" for their species moniker.

[MountainRaven]

2:39 The Ron Perlman of the cat world!

[sayitlikeitis]

I had a Maine Coon for a short while, he was a big fluffy beauty but my tortie, who was a fraction of his size, made his life a living hell. I had to rehome him.

[Pythonaria]

What I'd like to know is how much cat food a Maine Coon would eat in a day.

[xtwagon]

My first one would take himself on walks. Like someone called because he was a couple miles away.

[lisalalalisa]

If you have the time and patience, I think most cats, of any breed, can be trained. I think it's important to train all animals the sit and stay, for their own safety, as well as come. My cat will come 80% of the time indoors just by me calling her name and saying, COME, and 95% of the time if she is in her massive outdoor catio, but I often have to use the word COOKIE and then give her one.

I would love a Maine Coon, but even watching the brush go through its coat made my eyes itch. Allergies suck!
