Re: Maine coon look?

Hi Joey,

Ahh he is gorgeous, I love black cats. I would say maybe more Norwegian forest cat rather than Maine coon. Will be interesting to see what everyone else makes of him.


Izzie
He is lovely, very lucky to be with you I think.

My Tilly looks like that only with some white

I agree with Izzie999, more Norwegian forest cat than Maine coon

Re: Maine coon look?

My First thought was the same as the comments already made. it def looks like there some NFC in him . he looks gorgeous, and what a fantastic job you have done with him. good luck.........CHRIS

Re: Maine coon look?

i originally got him with his brother - gizmo - but he died suddenly last september
all the vets etc could say was a heart attack (cardiomopathy - cant spell) or blood clot.... i really miss him, and so does joey (we are just about to rescue a little girl from cat charity so he has a pal)

i suspect there was interbreeding on the farm i got them from! the man was just clueless more than anything, i did get cats protection etc to contact with him. there was about 14 of these kittens running around and they were from 2 mothers. my 2 when i took them home obviously had ear mites!!!

gizmo looked like this.......










well thanks for all of your posts, very grateful for your opinions!

A

Agreed x

He also hasn't a firm enough Jaw nor high enough cheek bones to be MC related either x

But he's a lovely boy x

Re: Maine coon look?

they don't have to have the look of the ped cat to be a cross breed etc. i have a 1/2 siamese and he looks nothing like a siamese lol.

both really stunning cats and good for you on saving them from a not niceplace.
