    This one is a Maine Coon

    Allegedly. According to the woman who paid out a fortune for her and then couldn't stop her kid from dangling it over the balcony by its tail and throat.

    She has the monstrously sized feet, furry toes, lynx ear tips and a lot of the character of a MC. The coat is pretty much self detangling, like a MC and her tail is like a feather duster and she is very heavily feathered. Except when I cut it all off because she's had a little accident in the litter tray.

    So she could be right.


    Tell you what though, it's thick as a barn door compared to a normal moggie. Sweet, but, oh my, so very, very thick.
    I could dream to wide extremes, I could do or die: I could yawn and be withdrawn and watch the world go by.

    I must agree with this although one of mine is ok(Jack) the other one (Thomas) is just not that bright. Jumps up on the widowledge with the curtain fully drawn (of course falls off), is so slow in getting this cat treat his brother has eaten both his own and Thomas's. Very lovely gentle giants and I love my to bits.

    To Jojo, MC or possibly Norwegian Forest? they are very similar... furry toes, bushy tails, ear tips.... My neighbour has MC's and they are gorgeous, hang on while I find you some pics so you can compare.
    Be who you are, say what you feel, those who mind don't matter, those who matter don't mind.
    They say that talking to yourself is a sign of mental illness. So I talk to the cats instead.
