I just rescued a Maine Coon Male “Ziggy” yesterday from an animal shelter. He is 4 yrs old and he already weighs 18 pounds!! What did i get myself into! OMG!! He loves my lap/chest. That is where he fell asleep for his first night in his new home, on my chest. Than moved down to my feet and stayed there ALL night. Oh what a long night for me but a great one for him. =) He is scared of water. I heard Maine Coons love water. Huh. Guess all cats are different…

To answer Bruces question about the Maine Coon being a lap cat. Cats are individuals just like humans so he may not be a lap cat because HE is not a lap cat. My Maine, “Rocky” is DEFINATELY not a lap cat, he doesn’t like to be held at all either but he loves it when I brush him, on the ground. He will bring me the brush sometimes and just roll on the ground.

I rescued a Maine Coon Cat from the animal shelter three weeks ago. He was very lovey at first and not now. Will he ever be a lap cat?

well i have a maine coon cat by the name of tommy. He’s a doll, however standoffish at times. No, he will never be a lap cat.He flourishes in his own independence. Which is fine with me, cuz i’m a busy bitch.

Hi there
I’m just about to collect my very first Maine Coon kitten, after a long time waiting for the right one. Budletts Bella Cloud is a blue/white kitten sired by Budletts Tsar and Guinevere. She’s absolutely gorgeous and in her honour I’ve created a blog diary for her which I hope other Maine Coon lovers will enjoy.
Can’t wait!!
