Thread: Growling kitten

thanks for all the advice on this ... i must admit i found it funny and cute and wasnt concerned until OH said he didnt like it ... have now ordered some more toys and hopefully ernie will find his growlly toy too!!

Noah has a now almost bald furry mouse which is very definitely his. Out of the two he is normally the most mild mannered, but he will growl if Flo goes near his mousie, he adopted it immediately it came out of the bag and at first she did try to play with it too but was met with such ferocious and possessive growling she now just doesn't bother. It's become Noah's comfort blanket and is carried around, hidden and played with constantly, when it goes missing which it frequently does he fusses constantly until you get down on the floor and hunt it out. The joy when it is found is really cute, he is not aggressive about anything else, so I dont find it worrying or something which needs to be controlled, its just one of the delightful character traits that makes the maine coon such a pleasure to have around.
