🐾 Maine Coons are smart
Anyone who’ve ever met a Maine Coon cat can’t deny how intelligent they are. From my own experience, I think they have analytical mind – you often can see them carefully watching you, analyzing every step you make 👀. Well, next thing you know, your Maine Coon knows how to open the doors! And it doesn’t stop there. For example, one of our graduate’s family told:
“Unfortunately I accidentally taught Willow, “so fluffy!” where I bury my face in her neck and say so fluffy! She, being ridiculously smart, copies it and aggressively shoves her face into my neck and rapidly licks/bites! It’s terrible!” – indeed, terribly smart Willow! 😅
🐾 Maine Coon Cats are affectionate
You’ve probably heard before “ Maine Coons are gentle giants“. They are very friendly, social and gentle cats. Maine Coon kittens often like to be treated just like babies – be carried everywhere, tons of attention and many many kisses. They also give kisses back, so that’s a bonus!❤ It would be a crime not to mention how chatty they are.
Maine Coon kittens quickly learn their name and often talk back. Guaranteed, if you’ve never heard a Maine Coon cat before, you’ll be amazed by the wide range of sounds they are able to make – from chirping to some pretty long and loud meows!
Bringing a Maine Coon into your life means gaining a loyal companion, a curious little shadow, and a gentle giant all in one. They truly have a way of wrapping their fluffy paws around your heart and never letting go. Whether they’re chirping at birds, flopping onto your keyboard, or curling up beside you after a long day – Maine Coons make every moment a little more magical. Once you share your home with one, it’s hard to imagine life without them.
