    Question from the Dog Side

    Hi everyone..

    i don't know much about kitties and I'm usually on the Dog Side of PT, but I have a question..

    I was at a friend's house today and was met by the most gorgeous long haired Coon cat (is that right?). She was more like a dog than a cat. She LOVED being touched and kissed and petted, and slapped me on the hand for more!!!!! She had the most lovely long coat.

    Is that the personality of the breed??? Does anyone have one? I'm totally in love!



    I've been Boooo'd!

    Isn't Richard's Edward D. Katz a Maine Coon?

    Maine Coon cats are big, fluffy and loveable.
    They can be described as very dog like in their behavior.
    I have a handsome one who lives next door to me, he comes over to visit a lot.
    Here is a link to a thread I posted of him with lots of photos.

    My grandmom found a Maine Coon underneath a car and took him home. That night he would sit in our laps and love all the attention. If someone didn't know when we got him, they probably would of thought he was her cat for years!

    Maine Coons love attention and they are very loveable.

    Maine Coons are notorious for their sociable, friendly nature. They skipped the whole "aloof" thing in cat school!

    The Maine Coons I have met were super friendly and loving. Makes you want one, don't it?
