and here's my little Princess as a baby...  :Luv:  She looks rather shocked as I had the flash a bit too bright  :evillaugh: She's half Bilbo's age and she's almost the same size as him now!

My God - I knew Bilbo was big but he is absolutely enormous! I really do covet him; he's truly magnificent.

That pic reminds me of Charlotte's pic of her holding Bilbo! 

Teehee! Bilbo is by no means a big NFC for his age (tbh I'd say he's a bit small if anything) and he's only 2 and this is what he looks like with my 6ft 5 OH holding him (yes Bilbo is fast asleep in the photo!!)

I think if I ever get a Maine Coon, He would have to be A boy and I would call Him Mr Spock  :rofl: :rofl:


Great name!

Max is a sweetie isn't he!

Sorry to thread jack but hows little Xanthe getting on ? is she growing & does she eat like a piggy ?  :wow:

Sorry to continue thread jacking but I can't resist talking about Xanthe! She is getting bigger and more adventurous - she gave the game away that she knows her name when she got shut in a room and answered me calling in a bid to escape! She also found her way from the tiny gap in the plinth in the kitchen, through the cabinets into the understairs cupboard yesterday - it took 3 of us on a mission to find her! :rofl: She loves her food and is such a cutie! :Luv: She must be about the same age as Leo - but he'll be bigger in the end!

My Maine Coon boy is just under 3years old.  When he was at the vets about two - three months ago, Max weighed approx 6.9kg then and isn't fully grown.

Have seen photos like that before including one where a girl was holding a Maine Coon which handing over both sides like the cat below.  She then held a Singapura which was tiny in comparison.

wow have you got piccies of your Maine ? Would love to see him  :)

Mamma mia... It is not unusual for Main Coons to grow quite big, I knew a few myself.  However this guy in the pic seems a bit exaggerated... maybe he does have a lion somewhere in his genes!! :wow:

I think this pic is actually genuine.. There are a few that I think have been doctored !

He certainly is a Large stoky boy isnt he.. Leo makes enough noise at the moment the way he gallops around.. !!! He is going to sound like an elephant when older !   :evillaugh:

Yeah its a Maine Coon.. The image comes up if you google it.. I looked at all those pics hundreds of times before I got Leo  :Luv:

My aunt mentioned they could get up to 20lbs and I didn't think to google it, just thought that's a huge cat!

Leo is going to be gigantic!
