I'm Looking For Food For My Kitten

Ensuring that cats and kittens receive adequate vitamins and minerals in their food is crucial for maintaining their overall health and well-being. Just like humans, these essential nutrients play a vital role in the growth, development, and proper functioning of a feline's body. Especially it's important for big size animals like Maine Coons.

Maine Coon Cat Becomes Beautiful If Alimented Correctly This Way

 This fantastic Maine Coon cat has a beautiful body, is large, and has very thick silky fur. At almost 4 years old he is a fantastic animal even though I left him at my house two years ago because I had pity on making him return to the condition he came from. 

Introducing A New Maine Coon Kitten In Our Family

Starting a new life is not easy for anyone. Imagine if they took you away from your mother, took you to who knows where, and put you in an absolutely alien and, as such, hostile environment. And you are only three months old.

I think my cats tell the kittens that they have to leave our house and go to another family. In short, kittens know what awaits them. Some don't want it, others ask every person who comes to take them. In any case, the first days are hard for everyone. 

Phantom Pregnancy Of A Maine Coon Cat Ended With Inflammation

Last week was very difficult both for me and my Maine Coon cat Mefiti whom I have already talked about before. Not only did she have an abscess under her throat. She was pretending to mate with Filippo a month ago. Filippo is castrated and these games end badly for her:

Mefiti wanted to have kittens so much that she developed a hysterical pregnancy. 

Well, things did not exactly this way. The cat had a hormonal swing. It's not that she "invented" a pregnancy voluntarily like humans could do (by the way, they say, Phantom Pregnancy is possible in human beings, too). 

Maine Coon cats have heat practically every month all year round and can mate even immediately after giving birth. This is a serious problem in homes where owners do not want to sterilize their cats. In my case, I have a small registered domestic cattery and therefore my cats are not sterilized. 

Philipp, Maine Coon Cat Without Psycological Problems

 Filippo is a young cat who spent the first two years of his life in a cage. They rented him to breeders as a breeding stock. He arrived in my house as a fur ball that weighed only 5 kilos. This is the weight of a two-year-old female, not a male. He was so mistreated that he didn't know that it was possible to play, he didn't know how to express his feelings. It made me cry when I watched him.

At first, I didn't know what to do with him. His fur was terrible: just lumps. I was thinking of taking him to the groomer to shave him. But the groomer was not working in that period. Maybe on vacation. Then I slowly started combing him, tearing out all that dead hair.

Within a week or two he had become more relaxed. Now it was time to bring him back. I don't like cats unless they're red. But this poor creature who had now become alive... It was so painful to think that he had to go back to the cage... And I decided to leave him with us.

The New Maine Coon Male Will Arrive Soon In Our Family

 This is Henri Le Grand, a 3 month Maine Coon kitten. The breeder has to vaccinate him the second time and he will be ready to leave his mum. By law, in Italy, cats can leave the cattery from three months of age. 

In fact, I believe that the right age for Maine Coons is 4 months because they are later in their growth and maturation. Our Philipp, who by all Maine Coon standards should already be an adult at 4 years, is still a kitten due to his behavior.

Maine Coon cats are like the gentle giants of the feline world, known for their large size, friendly personalities, and striking appearance. These majestic creatures have tufted ears, bushy tails, and a thick, water-repellent coat that comes in a variety of colors and patterns. They are one of the largest domesticated cat breeds, with males often weighing up to 18 pounds or more.

One of the most endearing traits of Maine Coons is their friendly and sociable nature. They are often referred to as "dog-like" because they enjoy the company of their human companions and are known to be loyal and affectionate. 

Maine Coons are also intelligent and playful, often engaging in games of fetch or showing off their acrobatic skills by leaping to impressive heights. Whether they are lounging on the couch or chasing after a toy, these gentle giants never fail to capture the hearts of those around them both humans and animals.

I believe that our Henri Le Grand will soon come to us.

When I got Timur, his breeder warned me that these cats are addictive: You need to buy more and more of them 🙂 🙂

I understand that I shouldn't do this, but I'm happy that there will be a new naughty one in the house. He will keep Filipp company who cannot convince the now old females to play with him.

He's grown, the baby, since I visited him

Why Indoor Plants Can Be Dangerous For Our Cats?

 The relationship between plants and cats in an apartment can often be a cause for concern for pet owners. While plants can add beauty and a touch of nature to indoor spaces, they can also pose potential dangers to domestic cats. As responsible pet owners, it is crucial to be aware of the potential hazards that certain plants can pose to our feline companions. This article tells the story of a cat owner who discovered the negative impact that cactuses had on her cats, highlighting the importance of understanding the potential risks associated with indoor plants.
