Hi, I'm new here! Just a query really from some experts! I have adopted a stray cat, he was bullied out of his other home by another cat so his owners signed him over to me as he was a real state, 18months old, entire, covered in infected cuts, I work in a vets so got him treated and castrated. I've moved and brought the cat with me and hes very much enjoying being a house cat, he is the sweetest thing and he and my old ginger are tolerating him each other very well!
My question is do you think he's a MC or has MC in him? last time I'm weighed him he was 5.5kg and very lean. He's much bigger than my "normal" cat, and has a beautiful long tail. I'm half convinced he is (but I love MC's so may have just talked myself into this) but would love to hear your opinion. Getting in touch with his previous owners is not an option, he was pretty much neglected by them and they had made no effort to find him once he became a stray and moved into my old landladys shed! hope this all makes sense!
Introducing Nero, he is now 2 years old and already putting on plenty of weight with regular meals, and stealing his brothers when we're not looking!

The middle picture is before he moved from yorkshire to gloucestershire and the other two are him enjoying being a much loved family pet.
It makes no difference to me whether he is a Coon or not, I love him dearly but just curious!
