Arthur
Gorgeous, isn't he? Arthur is my daughter's Maine Coon Cat. She adopted him from the Colorado Springs animal shelter when he was a small kitten. He's now 13 years old, almost 30 pounds, and a definite lover!
I've been AWOL from Camera Critters for a few weeks, but thought the first post of the new year was as good a time as any to jump back in. Happy New Year, everyone!
THIRTY POUNDS! WOW a big cat for sure!
ReplyDeleteAurthur is so handsome. I had a cat once, from a kitten, called Skit. He lived to be 16 and got rather large. At 15 1/2 he left home to live with a neighbour and never came back. I was obliged to visit him three houses down the road.
ReplyDeleteArthur is a good looking cat, I love Maine Coon cats. He's a big guy isn't he.
ReplyDeleteArthur is one handsome dude!!! So he's 13 yrs. old and 30 pounds??? Looks to me that he is well-taken-care-of!!! He not spoiled though is he??????? ha

Gorgeous cat. Maine Coons are about the only cat breed that I could be persuaded to keep as a pet, they are great.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! We took in Leo who's half Maine Coon. I love Maine Coons!
ReplyDeleteIt's good you jumped in again. Arthur is a super cat. He is pretty heavy, but not too heavy. We had a tom cat of 10 kilos. Have a great 2009!
ReplyDeleteArthur is wonderful.

Although not a cat person myself, your photo is terrific, rich in colour and texture, and your earlier one of a plate of tasty delights made me salivate!

ReplyDeleteYes, he is really gorgeous!!! I had a cat that was 16 lbs, and I thought THAT was big hehehe
ReplyDeleteI think Arthur is handsome. Thirty pounds? All the more to cuddle. ;-)
ReplyDeleteI didn't know maine coon cats were that big...beautiful cat...
ReplyDeleteArthur is a handsome fellow. I think we may have bobcats that are smaller.
ReplyDeleteWell i am glad to hear that i don't have the only two cats that weigh 30lbs It takes a lot to feed a 30 lb cat too. Arthur does look a bit sad tho, did he not get what he wanted to eat? I love his look cats just seem to have the best poses sometimes.
ReplyDeleteMy Grandma took in a Main Coon. She thought she was pretty as a penny so she named her Penny. She took Penny to the vet to make sure all was well...only to find out that "she" was a "he" and needed to be fixed! She-He-It had a LOT of long fur...but, he retained the name Penny.
