Thread: New Maine Coon/Pixie Bob kitten

He eats up the amount of food I give him but do you think that sounds like enough ? Should I give him more ? Vet claims he is growing healthy but I know they are a huge breed and can probably eat a lot.

I doubt my co worker would show me a pixie bob and maine coon and lie about them mating so i'm sure he is a Pixie Bob/ MC but I just haven't seen people cross these breeds at all online. I've been searching but no one seems to have info or have any MC/Pixie bobs so I thought it was strange.

Wether it is by accident or planned there are a lot more MC crosses available now,think thats why a lot more breeders are having their kittens neutered before they leave them so the breeding terms cannot be abused but if its is an accidental mating then it is giving some interesting new lines..... Don't quite know what Ari would be classed as,a Coonbob I reckon.Yes did notice his tail.
Yep biscuit is the same as dried food,a little won't hurt him just as a sprinkle on top of his meal,thats all mine have just adds a little more to fill them up a bit but with his wet food try him with more & see what happens,if he is not a greedy cat he will say thanks I don't need no more,if he is like one of mine just keeps eating for the sake of eatin then it will be up to you to say you have had enough,my piggy boy to try & make him ease up a couple of times we just kept filling his dish continually & he kept eating until he made himself physically sick then he said ok fill up again if you don't mind,him we know what he needs & he gets fed away from the others,you will get to know what your babe needs.It never amazes me with the MC how much they pile away in the first part of their growing life but when they mature it drops off to no more than a normal cat,in fact when some people come into work & say what their domestic cat eats my shopping basket seems small especially considering I have six of the darlings.
