Maine Coon Confident With Dogs Wanted

Hello! :smile:

We are looking for a lovely MC to join our little family. We would prefer an adult from a rescue/private rehoming (such as retired breeding animals) but they must be confident with large dogs. Quinn isn't at all chasey or grabby, but he is big and some cats will run away from anything big, that is not the sort of cat we are looking for. The cat would also have to be happy being a house only cat as we live relatively close to a railway and I would just freak out everytime kitty went outside!

Any age, any colour, any gender, that doesn't bother us (although I do have a soft spot for black silver tabby boys!) as long as they are happy to live with a very friendly dog who loves snuggling up, with the full run of the house and a cat sitter/cat walker! :satisfied:

If anyone knows of any retiring breeding animals, any cats in rescue, etc we would love to hear about them. :)

We live in Nottingham but would be happy to travel for our perfect kitty.

Thank you!

Tegan, Tara and Quinn :kisses:

Hi, I have the cat you are looking for. But I am from the united ststes and I have a feeling you live in England. Am I correct? Joan

Look on the Maine Coon Club site,they have a rescue section,also some breeders have their retirees on their sites.....

We got our Mufasa from a lovely lady called Pauline from a pedigree cat rescue in Nottingham! She's recently had 2 maine coon's and currently has one one that is reserved. It may be worth keeping an eye on her site for any others that come in. Mufasa was used to a small dog apparently. Here is the link:

Hello!

Thank you for that link - we did previously apply for Slash but they didn't feel he was right for our home (house cat, dog, etc) and has said she will contact us if a suitable MC comed into Thorneywood rescue. I'm glad you found your lovely MC.

Thank you.

We are talking running like speed lightning for the house. :LOL: Every inch of their fur on end. :LOL:

Unfortunately the cats around here are not as lucky. :( Next door has 8 cats currently, in the past 3 years 4 of her cats have died on the railway, now all but 2 of her cats are house cats as she just doesn't feel safe about letting them out which makes me really not feel safe about letting them out as she is so cat savvy.

I have spoken to my dog walker about walking the cat too (if the cat was up for it) and she said she would love to so the cat may get some outside time. :)

Thank you! We hadn't looked there before. Unfortunately none of the cats on there are suitable to live with dogs at the moment but we will keep looking ever week.

Thank you again.
