Thread: What do you prefer a male or female maine coon for a pet?

I have a 3 1/2 year old male and adore him! A fantastic communicator, looks you straight in the eyes when he wants something, and has the sweetest little "Mew.." So smart. he is pretty independent tho. He likes companionship sometimes but it has to be his idea. He owns the neighborhood, and the other cats give him so much respect..it is so funny. They come and sit on the drive way 2 or 3 at a time and wait for him to show! We have a female, too. She is a house cat, kinda fussy and a princess..but very sweet.
