Thread: Question about Maine Coon kitties

Thank you guys for your responses and thanks to you I will not worry about my Buddy. Now maybe you can help with something else.....the only way I can hear him purr is when he is hugging me while sitting on my shoulder only when my ear is pressed up against him. I know he is a happy cat but he does not purr. And also he does not meow either. Its kinda like a cackle, or chatter is this normal? He absolutely is a lover and I dont know how I ever managed without him. I have never had a cat that acts like him though. He sleeps on his back with all four paws in the air, he is clumsy especially with that HUGE tail of his, He is just a big baby and he is 2 years old!!!
