Alice, devourer of worlds.

People ask periodically "so, just how big is your cat now?", like they think I exaggerate Alice's size for some insane reason. I mean, Maine Coon, guys, these are the cats they designed to star in SyFy Original Pictures.

I give you Alice, with a copy of Rosemary and Rue for scale, taken inside the last few weeks:



And she's still growing.

Happy Sunday!

So pretty! And with those orange eyes (and I think you mentioned there's orange in her coat), she was born to be your cat.

She's a perfect Halloween girl.

I am the proud human of a five year old Coonie called Bucky B Katt (yes from Get Fuzzy). Bucky weighs in at 24 pounds and is three times the size of his sisters (they're Burmese/Aby crosses)

I'm told Bucky is large for a Maine Coon 8-)

That is him in my icon 8-)

Yeah, that's big for a Maine Coon. Our still-growing boy is about 16 pounds now, at 2.5, and will probably barely break 20 pounds. My queens are about 12, 13 pounds (one's fully grown and won't get any bigger, the other is 2.5 and has a little bit of growing still to do).

I had a friend whose MC tipped the scales at 22 lbs and liked to lie on the sleeping bag when I stayed over, thus effectively pinning me to the ground.

Bucky is asleep on my foot atm, effectively pinning me to the bed.

But he's a nice furry footwarmer in the middle of winter.

Everytime I see a Maine Coon I marvel out how fine their fur is. Is your cat a finicky eatter?

Not at all. She just wants to be fed NOW.

Aw, what a pretty kitty! :) Your posts always remind me that I need to get a Maine Coon, if only because of how fluffy/cuddly/intelligent/huge/amusing they are! ;)

... as opposed to my current cat, who's about half that size, full-grown, hilarious, cuddly, and rather thick.

She's a wonderful cat. I couldn't be more pleased.

I must have one. I've mainly had only Siamese in the past.

I like my Siamese/Maine Coon tag-team.
