Yep, the breeder puts the kittens in a pen when they have been naughty! (smashing ornaments this time) She'll be with the breeder for about 12 days until her injections then we get can pick her up!

We always wanted a cat like 'Mrs Norris' off Harry Potter but feared it was an unobtainable real Wildcat but it turns out 'Norris' is a pretty common Maine Coon, the largest domestic cat!

Nobody knows the origins of the Maine Coon but they've primarily evolved to live in Snow, large tuffs on the paws, neck and ears to avoid heat loss and a huge bushy tail that can wrap around the whole of the cats body to shield it from the elements. These cats have huge paws to stop them sinking in snow. Males can grow up to 4 foot in length but ours will probably be just over 2 foot.



I kid you not the breeder has a red cat this big too.

No idea - it was a lie; the only time I 'did a doughnut' was when I worked at Speedibake in the late 80's.

Yeah but they missed on on the Maypole building and Little monsters is empty.

Briers should be a baker...

......he really does love putting icing on a cake.

We've hit the 1,000 post mark for this thread, which always used to be the max. number of posts allowed (for some techy reason), so I'm locking this one now. A new chat thread will be available in a couple of minutes, so we can all enjoy Lupset's cats and Huddersfield's playoff dreams.
