Thread: New Main Coon Owner , Please help

hi Peter..& Emma, the cutie..

hearty Welcome..

You have come to the right place..

I have nothing more to tell..everything is made clear by Jckkerrison..

From my experience about an MC..I was not a cat person or even an animal person b4 I had to take care of a cute 3 month old n naughty MC on behalf of a friend..I still remember the cute eyes focussed on me the moment he entered my home..Soon I felt a wieght on my long hair on back n was wondered to see the kitty hanging there n was afraid for a while as I had no previous experience with cats or kittens..n I thought " Kitty..we will b staying together only for a few days.."but the next day I was woke up at 5 am by Meow..n slight rubbing on my face with a furry paw..n cake making on my chest..I would not allow even my parents to wake me up..so u can imagine how angry I was..he led me to kitchen n I srved him food n came back ..he also came back n just laid on my body n slept in a second with the cuteness that only an MC can have..omG..the next day came for him the new littre box..n when my friend asked whether he should take the kitty back..I told NO..within 2 days..Now ..I love each n every species of Cat..not only MC..n I am sure it is because my first pet was n MC..their intelligence..dont care atitude..the cuteness during sleep..fitting themselves into spaces which cannot accomodate their large body..waking us up in the morning..

I promise you..u have made a good decision n the coming days are going to be the most wonderful in your life..

MCs are always MCS..

Please upload her photos..
my warm pats n hugs for the cutie..

Hi, just enjoy becoming a slave for the rest of your days which i'm sure you'll love. They are however very addictive. A simple tip, bearing in mind coonies love water, a brilliant product on the market often found on ebay is a road refresher water bowl which stops them splashing water all over the floor and soaking everything, we've used them for a few years and they're by far the best thing on the market for coonies. Good luck with becoming a slave

If Emma is your first ever cat, have you ever lived with dogs?

You would notice similarities and a lot of their behaviour and personalities are on a continuum. Cats get just as fixated on their people as dogs, but the biggest difference is that you must quietly earn a cat's trust and affection; they don't come begging you!
