I don't how close you are to California, but Ruth is looking for a home for her relative's purebred Maine Coon, whose owner just passed away and the family can't keep because of an aggressive dog.

Here's the link:

If you live in the area, or there's anyway a transport can be set up, PLEASE consider adopting Emily. The Maine Coon is a wonderful breed and fits the profile of what you are looking for.

If not, PLEASE consider adopting an older shelter cat. With kitten season in full swing, SOOOOOO many older cats are being passed by.

Please, keep me posted.
