Thread: Am I just lucky or are all MC's like this?

This is pretty normal for a Coony That's why we all love them so much!

Sweet thing! MCs are known for being playful and affectionate but they do vary. I have the three and they couldn't be more different in how they express themselves and how clingy they are. But they are all wonderful and everyone who visits comments on how they are the "best" cats they've ever met. :P

Awesome

I feel so lucky to have Leo. It's a lucky dip when you buy from a breeder I guess in terms of personalities of the kittens, etc. Especially when you pick a kitten from a photo and don't have the luxury of being able to spend time with the kitten before you pick it up.

I remember the first MC I ever saw (which is when I fell in love with the breed) actually touched me on the face after I gave him a tickle on his neck. It was the sweetest thing ever. I'm so glad I've got me a baby who loves to show his affection like that.

Haha I haven't had him for even a week yet and I'm already picking out the colour for my next MC!!!

I find it neither necessary to be (a) a lady or (b) old to be a crazy old cat lady. However, the crazy part is self-fulfilling.

I say go for it 26 whats that,I waited until late forties to get crazy cat lady status & having peaked at six wish I had started a lot earlier as now feel we are on the downward trend because of our ages....! As Peter says they all have different traits & ways of showing affection but they are all lovely,the one of mine who is the most affectionate though is the one that I wouldn't have chosen for myself,although they are all pets formost I do like to show & he was the pick of the litter so ended up with a brown tabby,two things I always said I didn't want, never a brown tabby & certainly not a boy without white,no way,how wrong can you be & he has always been the biggest luv bug of the lot,purrs & snuggles all day long if you let him,he is good though because if he goes to jump up onto you & one of the others is having cuddle time he straight away goes off but he then lays on the cat tree in such a way that he is aware when the other one moves,he then has a yawn & a stretch comes down & walks past then he looks as if to say oh,empty lap,didn't know that well I had better just pop up & keep mum company,purr purr,kiss kiss,headbut pad pad,cuddle cuddle,blow on foot,would never want to be without them,love them all to bits.
When did you say the next one is joining the family & what colour...? I really need to have a smoke to help complete my colour spectrum...x

I love that one Peter,so pleased you don't feel that you have to be a lady....!

Not all of them... Roxy doesn't like to be held or snuggled. Once in a while she will sit on your lap but only on her terms. She will let you pick her up no problem but she will "squeak" in protest about it. I wish she liked to cuddle more because she is so soft and fluffy she'd be great to snuggle with!

Oh as far as being a crazy cat lady... At 26 I started with one cat Sneakers our senior kitty...then we got Roxy and when we were waiting for her to be old enough to come home from the breeder I found a feral kitten (Church) who happened to be just a few weeks older than Roxy so they grew up together. Then when Roxy and Church were about a year old I found a litter of seven three week old feral kittens in my backyard. So I had a grand total of 10! I found homes for 3 of the litter eventually...
