gray and the other 3 are black on black stripes. They do not have the
characteristic long long hair. 2 of them have extra toes (now a
disqualification, but many desire this trait.) We are in Maine (where
else).

They are litterally climbing the curtains. One of their favorite tricks is
to climb to the top of stuff and jump down. I am talking about over my
head!!
And now we have to keep them totally inside as we have a fox on the prowl
who has already taken 4 of my chickens. Playing hide and seek outside with
them had gotten to be great fun, too.
Oh well.

connection is to lovingly raised kittens being sold to good homes of people
who truly want a cat with certain characteristics. This kittens come from a
line of part maine coon cats which we have had for several years. The
grandmother of these kittens was spayed after she'd had 3 litters, and all
the siblings of our current mother have been spayed or neutered as has the
one son we kept. She will be spayed after one more litter. (she only has l
litter per year.)
This particular batch has extremely long legs and they seem to think that
they are either part monkey or part spider! They climb to the highest point
possible and jump. (the curtains seem to be a favorite at the moment ...
and they go to the ceiling! Next favorite are the shelves which also go to
the ceiling.
They are incredibly affectionate, having been handled daily since they were
born. They get along well with our 2 dogs, also both spayed, but are
terrorizing their uncle who weighs over 15 lbs! (my big sissy cat... he
won't even kill a mouse but plays with them where ever and when ever!!)
I hope knowing that we have taken care of the breeding population in the way
we have makes you feel better about our kittens.

United States each year. The vast majority of those cats are the product of
backyard breeders and careless people who let their pets reproduce. I'm not
sure which category you fall into. We do not need more mutt cats produced.
There are already way to many dying in shelters every single day. I don't
care how wonderful your particular animals may be. I can find one equally
wonderful waiting to die in a shelter some place.
For every life you bring into this world some other cat has to loose their
life.
Think about that the next time you decide to breed a cat. Think about the
fact that there are already more cats than homes.

we have what is call "ARK" These kind folks rehabilitate cats, spaying or
neutering before finding them new homes. But if someone wants a cat with
certain characteristics they are not likely to find it at a shelter. When
someone gets one of my cats, they can see Mom, Grandma, and some older
siblings and see what they are going to get.
I am glad you feel so strongly for 17 million cats but they do not reside in
rural Maine.

pet over population problem.
There are plenty of mixed breed cats in shelters just like the ones you're
breeding. There is nothing special about what you are doing. If a person
wants a cat with certain characteristics they buy a pure bred. Your having a
few parents on site proves nothing. I have a whole house full of cats that
are all related and each one is a completely different individual than the
next one.
Don't fool yourself into thinking you're providing a service. You may be
providing yourself with a quick buck. It's just a pity animals have to
suffer for it.

You would put your cats up against any breeders stock, even though you
admit that these cats:
a. Are polydactyls
b. Don't have the requisite long coats that distinguish the breed.
Btw, where do you get your studs from? if you are line breeding, and
getting recessives, it's time for new blood. But I find it doubtful
that anyone with a registered MC would be willing to breed to a mutt.
If you really really like the MC, and really want to breed, you could
at least get purebreds and work to improve the breed!

to have any of these animals tested for genetic diseases? I think not...has
she done any research into the genetics of her lines? I think not...Does

are just certain things that tick people off, one is the whole declawing
thing, another is "free kitten" ads and as you've just found out "for sale"
ads also - oh and the indoor/outdoor cat debate also. You just can't win
and people go on and on about the millions of animals that are killed each
year. If somebody wants a MC or part MC they are not going to go to a
shelter to find it, they're going to find a breeder, or a part-breeder like
yourself. I just happened to luck out when I picked up Max, I didn't know
what he was, he was little.
Personally, I don't see anything wrong as long as your kittens find good
homes and you know that they're going to good homes and as long as you're
not letting your cats run around the neighborhood getting eachother
preggo's, then do what you like, and trust me, just ignore the majority in
this group, it's the only way to survive.
Good luck w/your kittens

Responsibility seems to be the general quality lacked by a lot of people

Every litter of mixed breed cats you produce means that some sweet little
mixed breed cat in a shelter somewhere will die. I realize that must put a
crimp in the little money making scheme you have going. But hey, reality is
harsh. And the harsh reality is that what you're doing is a violation of any
responsible,ethical, humane pet owners standards.
Responsible people don't by mixed breed cats from backyard breeders. If they
want a quality animal that displays characteristics of a certain breed they
seek out a responsible breeder of quality pure bred animals. Or, they seek
out an organization that rescues animals of a certain breed.
Unfortunately, there will always be ignorant and/or irresponsible people who
will pay to buy an animal from a person such as yourself. Generally they're
people who can't qualify to buy an animal from a responsible source.
Just out of curiosity, what kind of genetic testing have you had done on
your animals???

of how shelters work. I wouldn't have thought of going to a shelter to find
a specific breed of cat back a few years ago when I decided I wanted a cat.
If I had wanted a "purebred" or even a "part-bred" I would have looked on
the 'net, or in the paper or wantad not realizing that you can call shelters
and ask for a specific breed.
I've learned a lot being on this newsgroup, but I still find it riduculous
that anytime somebody posts something that somebody doesn't like they have
to be nasty about it and attack them personally. You could have stated your
opinion w/out being so harsh, did you ever stop to think that people don't
realize the over population problem? I don't support the killing of
millions of animals every year, but I'm not going to judge this person
because they are breeding their cat in what seems to be a responsible way.
The people that are truly irresponsible are the ones who let their cats run
around the 'hood getting eachother knocked up over and over again (my
boyfriend's neighbor's for instance, it makes me sick and I've thought of
cat napping them many times and having them fixed and dropping them off
again). The other irresponsible ones are the families who move and leave
their animals behind because they can't take them w/them.
It's just my opinion and it's just your opinion and nobody can change those,
so their is no need for name calling, etc..

hand, as opposed to attacking and shoving your opinion down peoples
throats (you are one of few on this NG). This happened to me about a
month ago and I was appalled by the name calling and harassment that

breeders themselves and many of those same humans shouldn't be allowed to
have children, never mind own animals.

My brother agrees with you on the parenting part. He thinks that people
should have to apply for a license to be parents. His wife is a teacher
in a semi-inner city school and is always sounding off to him about the
way parents treat their children. And it's not just the kids who come
from poorer parents either. I certainly hope there aren't any animals
who have the misfortune to share there company.

I am the owner (or the human) of a 15 pound gray-silver Maine Coon girl: Chelle. If she was in a cat show circuit, she would be in the Blue Smoke color class. But she’s not, so just plain silver she is. I remember the first time I saw a Maine Coon. It was on the evening new, and the anchors were talking about a cat show going on in the city.
They introduced a cat as Knight, a 20-something pound male orange tabby Maine Coon, who could be seen at the show this weekend. I was smitten, went to that cat show, and a number of months later, I was the owner of 3 month old Maine Coon kitten. It was pretty quick!
You guys should check out
https://winstolkittenshelter.org
https://winstolkittenshelter.org/product-category/maine-coon-kittens/
You coul be cat owner soon.
Here are a couple of things I’ve learned from my experience jumping head-on into Maine Coon ownership as a beginner. Try not to judge me too hard, I am a first time pedigreed cat owner just trying my best.
Finding a Kitten For Sale
As a millennial, I make huge purchasing decisions (houses, cars, insurance) and restaurant plans through the same process: online reviews, Youtube, Facebook, and Google. It is no different for pets. I followed Knight on Facebook, then watched all the videos I could. I read owner blogs and breed guides.
Then I contacted all the catteries here locally and learned they all had waiting lists on future litters. I followed suit. I then did an interview. After 4-6 months, I got a call that it was my turn. I was emailed some pictures of the kittens, picked one, and signed the sales contract.
Mainecoon kittens for sale
Mainecoon kittens for adoption
I did not expect to have to be vetted by the breeder and I did not expect to wait so long. I know now both of things are standard for quality catteries. Don’t expect to call a place up and say “one Maine Coon kitten, please!” And if any operations promise that, it’s likely a scam or mill.
That is why https://winstolkittenshelter.org/ is the number place you should think of if you want to get a pet. I got my lovely baby from them and i helped a couples of friends to get their own pets.
A week later I went to the airport to pick up my new kitten who arrived from a neighboring island. I was lucky because Chelle is a social, goofy, and decent-sized Maine Coon. Breeders in Hawaii are a tight group and there were only a few reputable operations. They also referred interested parties to each other.
Your location may not be so simple. In your rush to have a new kitten, don’t forget to do due diligence. The best thing is to visit the cattery in-person and make a decision there. There you can gauge the cleanliness, meet the kittens and their parents, inspect the grounds, ask health related questions, and so much more.
Mainecoon kittens
Intelligence
Maine Coons are among the smartest cat breeds. You can train yours to walk on a leash outside, play fetch, and even do simple tricks. I thought it would be cool to try. Of course in reality, my cat is too good and lazy for that. No doubt she is intelligent. But what it really means in daily life is that I need to keep an eye on faucets, toilets, and bathtubs.
Why? Because she’s figured out how to work the tap in the kitchen and bathroom sinks to access flowing water! Another Maine Coon trait is an infatuation with water. This breed loves hypnotic moving water – they stare at it and bat it with their paw. My Chelle does not go swimming or try to join me in the shower like other Maine Coons, but she proves the water generalization to be true. So in my house… we leave the toilet seat down, and try to make the bathtub off limits!
Lots of sources said Maine Coons are an exceptional cat breed because of their unique personality. Instead of hiding in novel situations and with new people, Maine Coons are confident in charging forward and making a new friend. “Dog-like” was the term people used to describe Maine Coons. This is true.
In practical terms, it means every time I open the front door, my cat slips out the door. What’s she doing? Oh, just trying to find a neighbor’s door and go into their home like it ain’t no thing. She’s so trusting. Another one of her favorite things is to go outside and sit in the hallway and “greet” our neighbors as they come home. It’s endearing and I can’t even feign annoyance.
In Closing
These were some embarrassing, enlightening, and wonderful moments from life with my Maine Coon. I hope they were entertaining.
