Thread: Just Curious

Usually around 13 weeks. I know most people do visit their furbabies on a regular basis until ready to leave too. Are you in America? If you are, I also believe Maine Coons in America are bigger than the ones we have in Uk too although Im sure someone with more knowledge will let me know if this is rubbish lol

All the breeders I know over here don't let their babes go before 13 weeks so they have had their full course of vaccines & are sure there are no reactions from them but if you think about MC kittens I think you would have to get them at a very young age to have "fluffballs" as their quick growth soon says goodbye to that. I luv it when people come round to see the kitten & when you say there you are they say no want to see the babe,you are "seeing" the babe its a MC..... The fact they don't look so "cute" takes nothing away from them being a kitten. I always feel sorry for them at shows because yes you do get the little "cuties" but when you get your monster alongside them & sometimes they are even younger it doesn't half give you a sense of pride.
I have just looked up a couple of my babes weights & Shimba was 2.20kg at his second vacc & 4.40kg at six months & my new little girl was 2kg at her second vacc & although I didn't keep her weight record going at 10mths she weighed 5.5 kg which seems fairly good for a girl { I think } I am used to big boys....
Don't feel cheated just enjoy having a big strong babe from an obvious "good breeder".....x
