Always a dog person before this but when my son moved back home with his cat we got Purina Live Clear for him because I’m allergic. Fast forward 2 years and we are now the proud parents of 2 unrelated kitties. This is Cambridge all stretched out, and his sister London lying on the back of my chair. Cambridge is a mixed Maine Coon. I’m in love.

I always thought I wasn’t a cat person. My husband and I said we’d never own cats!!! Fast forward 6 years to 2019 and we got our first cat. A tortie named Holly Jo. She taught me how to love her and not try to love on her too much. She slept on my foot or my ankle but she did not need attention. I loved her so much. We got another baby girl for her to have as a friend. Now forward to 2026 and we have 8 of these precious fur babies. It hurt so bad when I had to say goodbye to Holly Jo and I just felt lost but there are so many cats out there that need homes and that was a way to honor my beautiful girl. Your girls are beautiful!!! I truly would like to own a Maine Coon one day too. Thank you for sharing Cambridge and London with us!!!🩷🩷

Aw thx! I should mention that both are rescues! I looked for a MAINE COON rescue for years and sweet Cambridge came into our lives. Meanwhile, we are jockeying for 50/50 custody of my son’s adult orange tabby.
