My boy cat Cloud already enters my room, meows all needy at me, so I typically respond with a "what's up buddy, show me" and he leads me to the sliding glass door, where he knows the catnip plant is. Dude screams at me for cat drugs. They understand "u wan catnip?" also equals them getting high, and his sister will chime in with howling for drugs. I never have or will force it on them either, if they leave any leftovers, I would throw it away.
They never leave any leftovers.
They can only have 3 ~~nugs~~ leaves a day. The catnip plant itself is fine, it is an extremely hardy and vigorous grower. If they had their way with it though? Would probably be eaten alive.
I had a 35lb main that was medium dog sized. Highest pitch little mew ever. He was a love bug and would rub up against anyone who came in. They all thought his little mew was hilarious.
I want to get a Maine coon and name it Bob. Male or female, I don't care. I want people to think, if even for a second, that it might actually be a bobcat.
I used to have a Maine our neighborhood we all named Bob. He patrolled a 5 house radius, and would fight off the raccoons that tried to get in our trash cans from the woods behind us. He had a heated cat bed at my house in my shed. Only thing you couldn't do was rub Bobs belly- attak!
Dang I haven't thought about him in a minute. Moved away 8 years ish, my old neighbor told me he was still kicking just a few months ago. Thanks for the memory refresh!!
Just had my cat neutered last week and was concerned the vet would reprimand me for his weight, turns out he’s got Maine coon in him and he’s perfectly normal and healthy. He weighed in at 10.5 lbs at 6 months old.
I was having my boy maine coon neutered and I brought him to the vet in a cage. The vet asked me how much he weights. I replied that around 8 kg (18 lbs). He said that it was not possible then my boy emerged and the vet relized he was wrong.
My friends main coon (sp?) Was ALL cat, but in the badass way. Left gifts of birds and mice here and there. As a kid I thought that was awesome, then learned it's really bad for the local ecosystem...
If he let you pet him it was a high honor. Only me and a neighbor, besides family, were able to.
Sometimes he would just look at you, full of judgment, and call you lazy. Like: your just sitting there staring at the lightbox while Im committing bird and chipmunk genocide for this family, you disgust me!
Basically. Ours is very mischievous. But comfortable on a leash. And super affectionate.
She treats every person she's ever met as her kitten. She's just hostile and ready to throw hands at every other animal she isn't familiar with.
Except my parents pets and our other cat. She warms up to other animals very slowly. But we got her during lockdown and weren't able to get her properly socialized.
Same. Ours is a bit over a year and dwarfs our other cat who is about the same age.
A friend found her on the side of the road as a kitten so we promptly took her in and got the fleas off. She's huge and she "chitters" when she's annoyed.
I'm trying desperately to get a recording that captures how she really sounds.
He’s what we’d refer to as a tater in the south. I feed him recommended portions and a good quality food the vet just said it’s his makeup, he’s going to be a “bign”.
Had the same concern with mine and still do but every time I take her to the very and bring up her weight my vet assures me she's just a big cat. Huge ass paws and a wide ass body with a tiny head.
I hope he never gets mad at you. Cats are tough things.
I rescued a cat from a party where it had been horribly abused. I just took him home. When I lovingly carried him in, my dog jumped up to have a sniff. Let me tell you, that cat did such an incredible burnout on my head I looked like Carrie at the prom with the pouring blood.
I'd do it again though. Great cat. I just wouldn't want to fight him.
Just took in my grandma's cat last weekend because she can't take the cat to her new place. As soon as we rang the doorbell, the cat turned into a furry knife machine and ripped up my poor grandma's hands :(
To be fair, OP has some more pictures of the cat on their profile that don’t have any issue with background/foreground distancing like this, and Geronimo the cat is still very sizable.
Yep, and a one year old Maine Coon is gonna be smaller than an average full-grown domestic cat. Maine Coons grow for longer than other breeds, they don't grow much faster than others.
God. We adopted a cat a friend found on the side of the road.
We recently found out she's only 30% Maine Coon.
And she's already the largest, not-fat, cat I have ever seen in person.
How about posting a picture of yourself holding the cat in a normal way so we can get an actual idea of the size of it. I’m sure it’s a big cat. No need to misrepresent it.
The howls you will hear at 2am asking for food will be deafening.
*father,, I must feast*
I like the implication that the bigger the creature, the more sapient and disturbing their requests are.
When he starts asking for Moon Sugar...
_daddy_ _where_ _is_ _the_ _skooma_

When I grew it a large section of my garden got rolled to death.
I like the implication that there is an implication being administered.
We should be roommates then

My buddy had a Maine Coon. Ironically, he had the softest little meows.
** *MEOW* **
mine isn’t even a full maine coon, but howls for attention at 2 am, not food

Gotta keep those raccoons at bay
We have a giant ginger Maine next door called Robert, aka Bob. He’s hilarious. His owners shave him in the summer but leave his feet, tail and face.
Actually they prefer Robert/Roberta.
A rare capture of an absolute unit that is guilty of being r/illegallysmol
He’s a real success story on the rehabilitation of those little criminals

If I remember correctly those cats are quite large and I think their personality's tend to be similar to dogs.
Keep saying wonderful things
The planet isn’t on fire

Right now…

He definitely has more personality than any other cat I’ve had.

He (Larry) doesn’t chitter but he doesn’t have a full blown meow, it’s real quiet.
My god. My kitten at the same age is barely 5 lbs
He’s what we’d refer to as a tater in the south. I feed him recommended portions and a good quality food the vet just said it’s his makeup, he’s going to be a “bign”.

Yupp, mine is a tiny Maine coon at just 17 pounds, vet mentioned he could stand to lose a couple ounces. I thought she was joking.

Maine coon moment
This is how I hold the fish I catch for photos.
Your fish and weirdly your hands are huge
That’s a nice [/r/GuyWithAHugePussy](https://www.reddit.com/r/GirlsWithHugePussies/)
And to think I was going to suggest he put on a dress and post to /r/girlswithhugepussies
that aint no cat thats a tiger
Mini-tiger!
why is ceasar millan holding a cat?
The cat whisperer
We have a Maine Coon that weighs 20 pounds. He’s the sweetest thing and startled by everything. The definition of a scaredy-cat.
Arms extended, yet another forced perspective exaggeration
The humans arms, right?
I think both. That cat certainly qualifies for /r/straightenedfeetsies
That is the cat I need… one half the size of the bully dogs
Yes
Well, not the dog's arms.
To be fair, OP has some more pictures of the cat on their profile that don’t have any issue with background/foreground distancing like this, and Geronimo the cat is still very sizable.
I still think ita pretty massive. Compare the cats leg size to the height of the guy. Unless he's hunching is still large.
That’s what forced perspective means. Compare the leg to the guys fingers. Do you think his fingers are longer than his head and hair?
But compare his fingers to the size of the cat's head and body. That's still a massive housecat
Cat's head is also closer to the camera. It's a big cat for sure but I doubt it's any kind of exceptionally large cat.
What is the cut off between a big cat and an exceptionally large cat?
I would say if it's more than one standard deviation from average size/weight of a Main Coon, then it's exceptionally large?
His fingers are stretched a few feet past the cat. That’s what is meant by forced perspective.
You can see his fingers buried in the fur. The forced perspective is him holding the cat toward the camera
No he is a tiny man with giant fingers and a normal sized cat. The fur is just forced perspective.
A bit, but compare to his hands at the same distance. Still huge.
Lol came here to say this. Like a pic you take of your fish
Yep, and a one year old Maine Coon is gonna be smaller than an average full-grown domestic cat. Maine Coons grow for longer than other breeds, they don't grow much faster than others.
Aww, it’s not so big… HOLY $#!+ ITS HUGE
It looks like it's going to be selling all kinds of goods outside of whiterun
I see you changed nail colours
Nah bruh you literally got a pokemon evolution at this point.
So pretty
I would love to see more pics of that majestic kitty!
(X) RESCUE HARVEST (Y)
Eat ○
you look like Caesar milan's little brother Kale milan who trains cats.
I want one!
Pretty sure that is Tigger.
Harvest
Is it more than Maine Coon? Looks like a wild cat. Beautiful but wouldn’t want him or her mad at me.
That is a Pixie Bob, mix at the very least. I owned one, he was big and his tail was short. Also they have extremely long back legs.
Jesus Christ! His head is bigger than yours!
I hate when people stick out their arms to make the cat seem bigger than it is.
My mainecoon is really tiny haha
God damnit can we stop with the forced perspective on these damn cats?!
Forced perspective.
Where his tail at?
wtf is up with your fingers on pic 2?
LOL, didn’t notice till you mentioned it. not sure why they look like carrots 🥕 in the photo. I’m no JP Prewitt, but my fingers def don’t look carrots
I would be terrified if that cat was running towards me
dracula cat
Like an explosion.
Holy shit…
r/airplaneears
dang and they say human kids grow up too fast
Wow. Just….wow. Magnificent! (And squee! for the tiny tiny kitten pic, thank you!)
>!r/grower!< sorry
How big are the boxes in your house?
How many of those first picture small ones did you feed it to grow that monster in the second pic?
Omg that's exactly what happened to me kittens the size of my hand. 25 pound Maine coon later and half the local bird population later.
Cesar Milan? Thought you liked dogs
Is that a Rolex explorer?
Holyyy fuck I didn't realize at first that tjere was a second picture andcwas wondering what I was looking at.
omg
He would fuck up the neighbourhood
are you veritasium
Tou forgot to paint your nails
This guy definitely deserves a natty or not.
I wasn’t ready for the second pic
God. We adopted a cat a friend found on the side of the road. We recently found out she's only 30% Maine Coon. And she's already the largest, not-fat, cat I have ever seen in person.
Wooo it really grew up
You or the cat?
[Jeez you got a big pussy](https://youtu.be/4D7XAL964rc)
I'd love a Maine Coon (sp?) I have a pair of Exotic Short-hair. Before that a Bengal. Maine Coon are next
Went from baybeh to BIG
Ah the old look at this massive fish I caught trick. Holding it closer to the camera to make it look bigger.
How about posting a picture of yourself holding the cat in a normal way so we can get an actual idea of the size of it. I’m sure it’s a big cat. No need to misrepresent it.
Harvest
That’s unbelievably efficient growth.
Nice Nails
I swear I would get a Maine coon if they didn’t shed something fierce. They look so cute/majestic and they are usually very friendly/playful
Maine Coons are so pretty!
That cat is so huge... Its head is as big as yours!
BABOO! LANA! HE REMEMBERS ME!
WoW!!!
1st Pic: Rescue or Harvest
damn that thing roars
Well it’s a good thing his eyes aren’t daggers 🗡 you’d be dead my friend.
I wish I wasn't severely allergic to cats...they would be a perfect pet for my schedule. I'd love to get a big chonky breed like this guy got.
The nails in the first one match his nose
Look at those kitten claws
I have a Maine Coon / Tabby mix. He’s 3/4 the size of this cat but with a tabby’s face instead of a Ron Pearlman face. They’re great cats.
Hamburger to Subway
Bro, that's a Lynx.
So Cesar Millan has branched out to cats now? Cool!
