Thread: Is Your Maine Coon a Lapcat?

My boy is only 4 months old. He already is very solid and heavy, lol he feels like he is at least 10lbs, lol. He is already bigger than Gigi my chihuahua. I have read that maine coon cats are not really lapcats and I was wondering if any of you have cats that are? My cat is definitely a lapcat. He always wants to sit in my lap and he always wants me to pick him up. He sleeps on my chest at night, on my head, or on my back lol. He is always sitting on my shoulder. If I lay on the bed he lays in my arms.

With strangers and others, he will sit next to them and only let them hold him for 5 minutes. He loves people and he hasn't met a person he doesn't love. He is so calm and laid back when meeting strangers and everybody loves him, lol. Are your maine coons the same way with you? I hope this is not something he will grow out of.
