Hi Everyone,
We are new to this forum partly because of a tragedy that has occurred. We lost our beloved "Henry" cat this week to a car. He was a stray and came to use 3 years ago. Here is a photo:
Henry was our pal and to our knowledge there are none other like him. Here are some of the things he did. He was an indoor / outdoor cat.
He made different noise depending on what he wanted.
Loud meow to be fed or let out.
Quiet squeek if he wanted attention. Almost sounded like a meow that he couldn't quite get out.
We taught him to make a "purring meow" before we fed him. I think Maine Coon breeders call this a chirp???
He followed you all over the house and waited outside the bathroom door for you
When he wanted attention, he would not leave you alone.
Very friendly to strangers.
Would roll over like a dog to have his belly scratched.
Now here's my question, are all Maine Coon cats like this? We are not sure if Henry was a pure bred Maine Coon since he came to us. Maybe an expert here can tell.
We are devastated by his loss and want to find another friend, not to replace Henry but to help us move on.
Thanks,
Mike and Kristyn
