My classic tabby cat in the day got knocked up by a maine coon.

She had a single kitten that we named Jing who was my favorite pet ever.

He was an incredibly friendly cat who I loved dearly.

One day our neighbors stole him and wouldn't fess up and we never got him back.

I am thinking of getting a new Maine coon this time except this one will be a pure breed is there anything special I need to know about taking care of one?

If it's the first litter ever and she's already an old cat, it's highly likely that she had something like 2-3 and only one survived.

don't get a purebreed.. There are lots and lots and lots and LOTS of kittens in shelters who need love, and you'd be surprised how many are close to if not purebreeds.

One of my little girls was a stray, and very near purebred Maine Coon. Her name was Shadow: Catwings of Thicketwold, and she was amazing.

There was a stray we called Mama Kitty who lived on our porch. She usually only had one or two in a litter (before we got her fixed).

/tg/ called, they want their Dorf Fortress cat back.

On second thought, keep her. She'll prolly start spewing kittens out any second.

break into their house, steal cat, lock it inside, get a gun if they come near and threaten them, then get enough money to bail you out of jail.

I just got a pure breed Maine Coon kitten and she's adorable, but the upside of adopting from a shelter is that you can get a cat that's a bit older and can see exactly how it's personality is. You are more likely to know if it will be sweet and cuddly or aloof and independent. Will it roll over and let you rub it's stomach or will it attack your hands? Will it get along with other cats or not?

My new Maine Coon kitten, about 4 months old, often scratches and bites our hands, is high energy all the time, and doesn't get along with the other cats in the house (but that's mostly their fault). But I'm confident that she will calm down when she gets older, because most of the cats I've owned have been Maine Coon mixes and they were pretty laid back once they became adults.

One of my cats was given to me (more like dumped on me) and is a crazy bipolar female that quickly jumps from "omg I loev you!!" "I HATE YOU, I WILL EAT YOUR FACE!" within a second. She's about 4 or 5 years old, and I THINK she's getting a little better over time... maybe... She was given to me when she was only 4 or 5 weeks old, way too young to have been separated from her mother. We didn't get her spayed quick enough, and she got out of the house and was knocked up at just 9 months old. She had nine kittens and every one of them had a different personality with different quirks, upsides and downsides.

The moral of the story: a shelter cat that is at least a bit more mature than a kitten is safer because you don't have to guess how it will turn out.
