9 Things I Wish I Knew Before Getting Maine Coons

cats in general are very addictive! they show so much love and affection, all with different personality, likes and dislikes. and how they play!

This is so true! I just buried one of my MCC's--my big, sweet boy. 💔It's really hard getting over losing him--he was such a presence in my home and my heart! Believing I will see my boy again (Romans 8:21). They are the most magnificent of cats!

Maine Coons are Beautiful Cats and worth every dollar you spend on them they take a lot of looking after, however, they keep you on your toes great entertainment as well. Thank You for filming them and giving us the occasional updates.I hope your little Baby is doing fine.

Beautiful kitties! Do they like water? Mine played in and dumped his water dishes until I got a heavy steel fountain! Knots in his fur appeared overnite in his later years so lion cuts were needed. Groomer said he was an angel. Lost Tigaro at age 13 and will always miss his sweet chirp!

My sweet MC acts more like a dog than a cat sometimes. He's very affectionate, loves belly rubs, follows me everywhere I go, and sleeps on the foot of my bed. He actually eats less than my sleek little calico. And you are so right about the fur! Very high maintenance and it's EVERYWHERE! I have to run the vacuum every single day. He's worth it, though. ❤

A friend of mine found a Maine Coon and just before my boyfriend passed away his daughter gave my cat away I loved her so she was so affectionate and loved me back unconditionally. And she gave her away her away this was 4 years ago and I'm still aching over it

I am truly serious about getting a Maine Coon. I have loved & lived with cats all my life. I really love the fact they're called gentle giants. I also love the idea that they are somewhat dog-like. I lost my puppy to cancer and all of cats grew to be 17 - 19 yrs old. I am ecstatic that MCC live 15+ years. However I don't have $500 - $2200 to spend for a cat at this time. I am very sorry I didn't scoop up this MCC kitten when I first started looking at $300. I'm doing a lot of research so it was great to get your information. So far nothing has discouraged me😊

Your cats are beautiful! It made me think of a Maine Coon I had. He was a big boy and I called him Bubba. This cat WOULD not let me brush him. Awful! I spent a week one time on staycation cutting fur mats out of his coat. I learned to start brushing as soon as you get a kitten! They actually grow to love being brushed.

Really interesting facts about Maine Coons! Yeah, I'm sure the idea of a video came to your head while you were in the shower. It's amazing how that works, as your mind is at its clearest state during a shower. I have never forgotten how much of a beggar Hey was! During the human dinnertime, Hey would poke his head over the dinner table! It was so cute!! Overall, this was very informative!!!

i'm adopting a maine coon mix tomorrow <3 thanks for this video! i'm happy to say none of these points deter me at all! looking forward to long brushing sessions with my new pal, Archie

They are like the halflings in the shire- 1st breakfast, 2nd breakfast , middle tea first lunch etc, etc.

Your salary of them is much joy and fun and entertainment!❤ Stunning cats!I constantly follow your channel from 🇩🇪🤗

I can hear the love and admiration in your voice that you have for your Maine Coons. I wish you many many more years of happiness with them. Thanks so much for sharing.

You’re definitely onto something with this video! Every single point is very much true! My Patches is going to be 15 on the 10th of next month, but she looks like she’s maybe 4 at the most.

To battle the fur I am almost only wearing leather pants these days, I was really getting OCD from just sitting down on the couch and getting hair everywhere stuck on my pants. 😂😂 Anyway, your cats are absolutely stunning!!

I have a Maine Coon cat for 15 years; the steps 1-9 are right on. It's like having a dog rather than a cat. My cat, Heather, loves Temptation treats . . .. she does talk to me. I am a dog person, have a Maltese, but the cat steals my heart [and attention] all the time. Looking forward to more comments/video from you and your cat family.:thanksdoc:

I'd love to see more of your babies

I have to agree with everything you said. Mine is not a lap cat, he has to be held and lays over my shoulder. At nigh, under the covers head on the pillow and holding an arm. If you go to roll over he will switch sides then.

They are so beautiful but I have to sweep daily but I don’t mind bc they’re incredible cats! Only thing that makes me crazy is the talking they do in the middle of the night when they want something 😂. They don’t meow but they do make themselves know if they want something! Best cats I have ever had though. Love, love, love them!
