Best Characteristics of the Breed

I like a long hair cat. When I saw her first I thought she was a male

Most Challenging Characteristics of the Breed

I found that they seem to bite but always happy

When, Where and How I Got My Maine Coon

I had a cat before I got her and I had a male Maine coon cat and I wanted to get a female cat so I found her in a pet store so I bought her. Now a week ago she started having kidney trouble and my vet said that she would live 3 to 7 days and she died after 5 days. So I asked my vet if they had any cats or kittens. Somebody phoned in and some body had a cat that was 1 years old spayed female and Maine Coon so now have her.

I'd Describe My Cat As…

She was a pretty cat she was grey and white and a bit of peach. She was a good cat she knew where litter box never made a mistake. The only thing she did was sometimes bite. She was an indoor cat and she didn't mind. So will my new cat.
