I was watching "Too Cute" on Animal Planet last night because one of the set of kittens were Maine **** Cats and I can't believe all the misinformation the narrator spewed.
He went on and on about how they would grow to be 25-30 lb cats, everything I've read and my personnel experience is female about 15 lbs and males 18-20.
Then they show a cat that they said was the father and said he was only 9 months old, would a reputable breeder stud a 9 month old cat?
Then they said he was 25 lbs when he could not have been more then 15 lbs.
Is there any cat that has more myths and misinformation then the MCC?
In 1995 before I got Samantha I'd heard the stories of the giant cats but I went to Petsmart and bought the book "This is the Maine **** Cat" and that book set me straight, also made me want one even more.
The MCC is the 2nd most popular Purebred Cat in the US, why can't these show that are suppose to inform us separate fact form fiction?
