It's a girl!

[msomnipotent]

We had no idea if the wild bobcat we took home with us from our vacation was a boy or girl. The vet confirmed its a 4 month old healthy girl! And it is not bobcat but some sort of Maine Coon mix. I hope it gets large enough to take out our stupid dog.


1/10th of a second before the shit storm.


This cat is so absurdly long and has such unusual markings that she looks like a poorly drawn cartoon of a cat. And she has already figured out that doorknobs are the way out. Here she is trying to open the back door.


She followed my daughter from a farm to our rental house and refused to leave. She even tried to hop in the van (I really do drive a mini van!) and followed us when we tried to leave, screaming and crying the whole way. We asked the farmer for permission to take her, and he was nice enough to offer us a pound of cheese from his dairy cows as well. And she screamed and cried the whole way home. By the way, we live 4 1/2 hours away from where we found her. It was a fun ride. We named her Tomah in honor of where we found her, and because we thought she was a boy.

Almost anytime a cat has an M on its forehead, it's a Maine coon. My brother's maine coon is 22lbs, the dogs run from him.

Our cat weighs 20 pounds, but its all fat. The thing pisses and sheds on everything.

Good luck, my friend!

Never mind what those (yahoos) people are saying . She is so pretty and looks like she will be a great addition to the household. Bubba was part Maine coon and loved getting in the shower or being around the sink when the water was running. So just watch out , she may take a liking to baths.

I tried looking to see. Did you ever try checking a fully clawed cat that doesn't know you? Plus, it looks like she has extra parts. Our friend has boy cats and couldn't tell what she was, either. She looks different from my cat, but then again, I don't go walking around staring at cat ass all day. My other cat is spayed and has a butt full of fur to hide things. This kitten kind of lets it all hang out there.

I read that Maines liked water. She doesn't seem afraid of it, but my daughter tried to get her in the bath tub and it was a no-go.

Don't feel bad. When I was a teenager I got a kitten from a friend. Named it Skeeter-Joe. The night it had kittens it was quickly renamed Skeeter-Mae.
