    Before buying a Maine coon cat... buy 3 more Maine coon cats.

    Just like with babies, kitties require time, effort, patience, love, and money. 😊😊

    Have you heard of whisker fatigue, their whiskers are really sensitive. Their whiskers actually hurt when bent back as in your deep ceramic dish. I started using a shallow soup dish instead of a deep dish. My cat never ate all of his food until I got a large soup dish. I’ve had cats all of my life and didn’t know about whisker fatigue. We used a ceramic soup bowl on a raised stand. I use a rubberized mat so the bowl wouldn’t move. I do love the fountain you selected though, so much easier to clean and fill. I only have one cat but two of my sons dogs so I will get a larger capacity one net time.🐱

    All of your cats are beautiful. Moose has gotten so big and handsome, I can't believe he is 6 months old already. He's going to be a big boy.

    My boy was never interested in water fountains. He liked to drink from the bird bath, or from the liter glass jug off the food blender. So that jug became his bowl. And he was a super fussy eater too.

    We use a walking jacket for our savannahs from Hyendry. I think they look more comfortable than a harness. Our cats have accepted the easier anyway. They are handmade and take a few months to get. They also have very sturdy toys.

    I have 5 mainecoons that are all 2. We rescued a whole litter! Winnie, pepper, Anakin, donald and Cheshire. We have had them since they were 3 weeks old and they’re absolutely the BEST cats in the world. I’m watching this to see if there’s anything new they need 😂 so spoiled. Sooo many toys, only the best food and they have a litter robot. So let’s see what they need from your video!!

    Carpet a wall for some real laughs. Maine Coons will do acrobatics on a carpeted wall
    To get the poop to stop sticking in the fur you get a large storage container to use as a cat litter box. The breed is soo long that they have their butts against the wall inside in smaller litter boxes soo the poop is pressed into the fur.

    My Maine Coon Morris gets very ambitious sometimes at the most inconvenient times. Bed time, or just playing too hard with the smaller cats, or during the game they dart in and out of the room. Buy a pet shirt at petsmart,( Morris is in a medium dog size shirt), but anyway the shirt, any shirt, will calm them down immediately. Good for travel or going to the vets as well. Good investment for around $10.

    How have I had cat's for almost 30 years (in all fairness I've just turned 34 so part makes sense) and never known about litter mats this would of saved so many times standing on litter and constantly vacuuming it after they leave a trail that was stuck to paws 🤦‍♀️ now ordered 1 from amazon especially since I'm hoping to add my 1st maine coon in the not to distant future so bigger paws to stick to.

    It must be normal for cats to lose interest in toys (most of the time) as they mature my 18 yo rag doll is the same, he lost interest in the red laser unlike our 11 yo rag doll 😂😂😂

    Stuff to buy for Maine coons. My Maine coons they are brother and sister. And Sarah she has chewed every cord into. She is the electrician. Jimmie he is the plumber. He works on ay sinks and my bathtub and the water bowl. They have destroyed everything in my home. But they are good kitty's. They seldom ever meow. Purr all the time. Lots of fur but they are so soft. Jimmie he is a momas boy. These kitties I have were rescue. When I got them they were about 4 weeks old I thought well they have Persian in them. Oh no! Jimmie he kept getting bigger and bigger. I never ever heard of Maine coons
    Well they are Maine coons. Jimmy weighs about 25 to 30lbs. I have to use both my hands to actually pick him up and his tail is do long I can use it as a walking stick. They are very sweet cats. But just get ready for alot of fur.
