Smile Hi from Connecticut

My wife and I have two Maine Coon's. Our female Dixie is 2 and weighs in at a very lean 17lbs. Our male Wile E is 1 1/2 and weighs in at a lean 14lbs. Everything we had read about Maine Coons didn't prepare us for these two. They play harder than any cats we've ever seen. They love to chase each other up and down the stairs and all over the house. In the mornings it's like WWE on the bed. We never bother setting the alarm clock since they never let us sleep in. I could write a book about these two but I will leave that for later.

You can't just tell us about your minster cats and not provide pictures.
My late Samantha was 17 lbs at her max.

It's hard to get them to pose for pictures but these were taken when they were trying to nap.

W.o.w., those two look very exotic! Welcome to the forum, and we look forward to more pictures when you can get them to sit still for a second.

They are both gorgeous, but I have to say, Wile is just breathtaking! Welcome to the forum

Thanks October! Your two guys look sweet.

Thanks Lenkolas. We've had several people, including our Vet say that Wile E is stunning. Your Gatito reminds me of my Rascal who I lost a few years ago. All your guys are cute. Makes me think I want another.
