My New Cat, Maximus.

[CultureJunky]

What a simply gorgeous little young man! He's super cute! I'm looking forward to watching him grow up on pet talk
I want to see him grow, get neutered, learn to be bold and fall off things, cuddle, sleep in funny positions, all the things you go through with a cat

[Maya & Inka's mommy]

Oh gosh, what a super adorable baby!!! It is fantastic to see how your dogs looh after this little cat
Maximus will grow into a huge cat, I think. He looks a bit like a Main Coon to me

[smokey the elder]

It looks like he's made himself right at home, thank you very much!

What a nice addition to your family. He really seems to be settling in.

Those Dogs certainly have made Maximus feel at home.
I would be careful though that he doesnt get into the habit of eating with them as Dog Foods not good for a Kitten.
I would get one of those plexi glass things for hos litter box where he can go in but his Canine Plas cant as they might knock it over and soil it.
What a wonderful Little Cat Of The Future.
Dont be surpised if he starts barking!!!

catmandu - I don't think I've ever seen one of those plexi glass things that you're referring to, but I'll definitely look into it, it sounds like it would be helpful. Last night all of a sudden I realized Lucy was nowhere to be seen, so I went looking for here, and there she is next to the litter box playing with a piece of cat poop. She's so classy! We've been feeding the kitten separately from the dogs, and the dogs eat their meals so fast that I don't think the kitten would have a fighting chance to get a piece of their food, even if we didn't separate them lol

Maya & Inka's Mommy - he is a little bit fuzzy like a Maine Coon, but I don't think his hair is *quite* long enough...I guess we'll see when he gets older. Maybe his father was part Maine Coon - I met the mother and she was 1/2 Tiger Cat 1/2 Bengal, with short hair.

Culture Junky - I can't wait for all of those things to happen either! Last night I was petting him on my lap and I saw a teeny flea run across his tail So, off to the pet store I went to get some flea stuff! I hate fleas!

This morning he was all excited when we woke up and was purring and rolling around to get some belly rubs, it was adorable. And right now he's asleep on my lap while I type. I guess I should just admit to myself that he was a present for myself as much as my fiance lol

Here are some great pictures we took of him last night. They all took a nap on the couch together, it was adorable!


















more to follow!....

Oh my gosh how ADORABLE! Amazing how they became friends so fast. What a sweet pack you have there

[cassiesmom]

Maximus! Such a cutie you are! I'm glad you are getting along with Lucy so well.

luckynumber7, these are absolutely SWEET photos of Maximus and his two big sisters. You can change the title of this thread (click on edit)- & put a CUTENESS WARNING cause the last round of photos is definitely very cute! But, oh, how I hope he does not have fleas for the sake of MOlly and Lucy and your home!

[LuckyNumber7]

I kjnow, I hope he doesn't too, but I think it was definitely one that I saw on him last night. Since then though I've been picking through his fur checking him over like crazy and haven't seen a single other one, so maybe it was an isolated incident. We're treating it though, just to be safe! Both the dogs are on frontline so hopefully they dont get any!

Here are some more pictures of him and his big sisters! I'm going to have to make another thread in Dog General with some funny pictures of Molly from last night that I got of her demonstrating the proper way to eat a rawhide stick while looking as goofy as possible!
