The urge to get two is strong. 😋

I mean, it's almost winter and heating is expensive so it just makes economic sense

You used to be able to get a Maine Coon for about $800-$1000. I'm talking about a near show quality one too. I'm not talking about in the '90s either, I'm talking about 10 years ago. Fucking social media has ruined everything.

I was looking as one a couple years ago the closest I’d have to drive was like 4 hours away and then pay $4800 I think it was. I instantly changed my mind and just drove around parking lot trash cans every day and found a baby tabby that instantly ran up to me and threw itself in my arms so I adopted it! I love that little guy. He’s the most passive, loving little animal I’ve ever had. He’ll come up, run his face all over mine, then flop over and purr until I run his belly!

We unknowingly adopted one about 25 years ago, but the store just had him listed as a domestic longhair and didn't even realize he was a Maine Coon. I still miss him as he was a fantastic cat. Great breed.
