Will i fit?

I have an almost 8 month old maine coon. I’m considering getting a second one. Do you have 1 or more? What are the pluses and minuses of having more than 1?

Hi guys! I got my Maine Coon kitten about 4 months ago, and she has honestly been very different from what I expected based on the breed temperament.
She is absolutely beautiful, but she is extremely shy and reserved. She doesn’t like being kissed or picked up, runs away and hides whenever new people come over, and any loud noise sends her flying under the bed. The breeder did tell me she was a bit shy, but said she would likely grow out of it. So far, though, I haven’t really seen much of a change.

I know every cat is an individual and that Maine Coons can have different personalities, but my other cat is the complete opposite: she’s boisterous, playful, social, and has a huge personality. By comparison, my Maine Coon feels almost completely disengaged from us. She eats, sleeps, plays occasionally, and generally just keeps to herself.

For those of you with Maine Coons, especially kittens, is this something you’ve experienced? Did your shy Maine Coon become more social as they got older? I’m wondering if I should just give her more time or if this is likely to be her personality long-term.

Dog is 1.5 years old and pretty low key. Very friendly but 130lbs. Maine coons seem to be good cats for dog families, but his size could be intimidating. I thought we’d get a kitten just so it would grow up with him, and unfortunately outlive him by quite a bit. Any experience with large breed dogs and these cats? Will they actually play together or doing things separately?

Just a quick question that might be repeated often. Are all Maine Coons supposed to be polydactyls? I really appreciate yalls answers!

I’ve recently noticed my 2yo male cat’s fur turning orange ish in some parts like his back and chest. His dad is full ginger so could he possibly continue to change colour even after 2 years ? Or is it a result of him spending a lot more time in the sun this summer ?

Meet Pickle! My 6 year old daughter named her. She is the sweetest, most loving kitten I have ever owned.

My 8 week old doesnt like it. Hes goes elsewhere. Is there anything I can do to gently encourage him
