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

We have girls. Initially I wanted a boy but when we saw the size of his granddad and dad we thought ooh! Dakota is really big already at 18months and Atlanta is a slightly smaller from a different breeder. I love both of them as they are good in coming home on a regular basis. I think I'd constantly worry if the boy cat wondered off too far. My friend's cat did this and unfortunately ended up in cat heaven . Overall, they have such lovely nature. Maybe in the future a beefy boy will join our growing family.......
