Hi everyone,

I am the owner (or the human) of a 15 pound gray-silver Maine Coon girl: Ch=
elle. If she was in a cat show circuit, she would be in the Blue Smoke colo=
r class. But she=E2=80=99s not, so just plain silver she is. I remember the=
 first time I saw a Maine Coon. It was on the evening new, and the anchors =
were talking about a cat show going on in the city.

They introduced a cat as Knight, a 20-something pound male orange tabby Mai=
ne Coon, who could be seen at the show this weekend. I was smitten, went to=
 that cat show, and a number of months later, I was the owner of 3 month ol=
d Maine Coon kitten. It was pretty quick!

You coul be cat owner soon.

Here are a couple of things I=E2=80=99ve learned from my experience jumping=
 head-on into Maine Coon ownership as a beginner. Try not to judge me too h=
ard, I am a first time pedigreed cat owner just trying my best.

Finding a Kitten For Sale

As a millennial, I make huge purchasing decisions (houses, cars, insurance)=
 and restaurant plans through the same process: online reviews, Youtube, Fa=
cebook, and Google. It is no different for pets. I followed Knight on Faceb=
ook, then watched all the videos I could. I read owner blogs and breed guid=
es.

Then I contacted all the catteries here locally and learned they all had wa=
iting lists on future litters. I followed suit. I then did an interview. Af=
ter 4-6 months, I got a call that it was my turn. I was emailed some pictur=
es of the kittens, picked one, and signed the sales contract.=20

Mainecoon kittens for adoption

I did not expect to have to be vetted by the breeder and I did not expect t=
o wait so long. I know now both of things are standard for quality catterie=
s. Don=E2=80=99t expect to call a place up and say =E2=80=9Cone Maine Coon =
kitten, please!=E2=80=9D And if any operations promise that, it=E2=80=99s l=
ikely a scam or mill.

That is why https://winstolkittenshelter.org/ is the number place you shoul=
d think of if you want to get a pet. I got my lovely baby from them and i h=
elped a couples of friends to get their own pets.=20

A week later I went to the airport to pick up my new kitten who arrived fro=
m a neighboring island. I was lucky because Chelle is a social, goofy, and =
decent-sized Maine Coon. Breeders in Hawaii are a tight group and there wer=
e only a few reputable operations. They also referred interested parties to=
 each other.

Your location may not be so simple. In your rush to have a new kitten, don=
=E2=80=99t forget to do due diligence. The best thing is to visit the catte=
ry in-person and make a decision there. There you can gauge the cleanliness=
, meet the kittens and their parents, inspect the grounds, ask health relat=
ed questions, and so much more.

Intelligence

Maine Coons are among the smartest cat breeds. You can train yours to walk =
on a leash outside, play fetch, and even do simple tricks. I thought it wou=
ld be cool to try. Of course in reality, my cat is too good and lazy for th=
at. No doubt she is intelligent. But what it really means in daily life is =
that I need to keep an eye on faucets, toilets, and bathtubs.

Why? Because she=E2=80=99s figured out how to work the tap in the kitchen a=
nd bathroom sinks to access flowing water! Another Maine Coon trait is an i=
nfatuation with water. This breed loves hypnotic moving water =E2=80=93 the=
y stare at it and bat it with their paw. My Chelle does not go swimming or =
try to join me in the shower like other Maine Coons, but she proves the wat=
er generalization to be true. So in my house=E2=80=A6 we leave the toilet s=
eat down, and try to make the bathtub off limits!

Lots of sources said Maine Coons are an exceptional cat breed because of th=
eir unique personality. Instead of hiding in novel situations and with new =
people, Maine Coons are confident in charging forward and making a new frie=
nd. =E2=80=9CDog-like=E2=80=9D was the term people used to describe Maine C=
oons. This is true.

In practical terms, it means every time I open the front door, my cat slips=
 out the door. What=E2=80=99s she doing? Oh, just trying to find a neighbor=
=E2=80=99s door and go into their home like it ain=E2=80=99t no thing. She=
=E2=80=99s so trusting. Another one of her favorite things is to go outside=
 and sit in the hallway and =E2=80=9Cgreet=E2=80=9D our neighbors as they c=
ome home. It=E2=80=99s endearing and I can=E2=80=99t even feign annoyance.

In Closing

These were some embarrassing, enlightening, and wonderful moments from life=
 with my Maine Coon. I hope they were entertaining.
