    A visit from the kitty next door

    We recently had a handsome fluffy visitor in our yard.
    He was giant with big fluffy white paws with thumbs, he had to be a Maine Coon.
    He insisted that my daughter pet him.


    And pet him...


    And pet him some more! Look at the size of that tail!


    He was a very friendly, very fluffy boy!

    He had pretty green eyes too.

    More photos in next post.
    RIP sweet Samantha

    Oh he is lovely! I wonder if he come over hoping to play with Samantha?
    He was certainly happy with the petting!

    His coat was so thick and fluffy.


    I could not believe how big his tail was!


    He snacked on some of Samantha's favorite crabgrass.


    Then he stalked our garden hose when we were watering the flowers.


    Where was Samantha you may ask?
    She was happily sleeping in the bathroom and didn't even know he stopped by.


    After meeting such a supersized kitty, Samantha looked quite petite to me.
    RIP sweet Samantha

    KK, he was such a lovebug, wanted tons of scritchies and petting.
    The neighbor did come over to get him eventually, she's fostering him for our local shelter.
    He's only about 1 year old but he's huge! When she picked him up he was a big double armfull of fluff!
    He came over to greet us again the other day when we came home with groceries.
    He came trotting over to us, meowing the whole way.
    RIP sweet Samantha

    He sounds a wonderful foster. Hopefully he will find a great home. I love his tail and thumbs.
    So Samantha never even knew she had a visitor? Cutely napping away under her shower curtain. I am sure she got some skritchies too.

    What a gorgeous fluffy boy he is, I'm also very impressed with his tail - and so sweet to come over and visit. He can propbably feel that you are cat people, but of course, he could also have seen Samantha and fallen in love.

    Do you think there's a chance that your neighbor can't let him go? He seems such a lovebug.

    What a handsome hunk Are you sure he's not scoping you out for a possible new "meowmie"? Incidently, that's how Eve chose her home with us Just kept dropping in and eventually decided this was her domain and stayed

    Has Samantha seen him yet? Wonder what her thoughts are??

    Whatever the case, he is so beautiful and so loving - I hope he lands a wonderful home

    Donnaj4962 certainly has an excellent idea as hes such a Fantstic Big Cat and he already knows you and is obviously wanting to join your household. We think taht if you let this oppurtunity go by that you will regret it for the rest of your lives. You will look at a empty big space in your home and think we could have that Giant Cuddle Bunny there loving us and making us happy.
    The Found Cats are pleading with you.

    OMG! He's definitely a Maine Coon! I recognize the floofy tail, the green eyes but the dead giveaway is his heading for the hose - MC's LOVE water!

    Aw, he's a handsome boy, alright. Well, whatever home he goes to, he's going to make a wonderful addition, especially if he's that friendly.
    Blessings,
