This huge guy needs a home!

[Mrs. Overall]

This might be one of the biggest Maine Coons I've ever seen! I have two at home who are large, but still a fraction of this big boy.

2. Wow!!! Big kitty!!

I would almost say he has wild cat in him except very few wild cats will mate with domesticated.

3. Can't excess their website due to excessive traffic. Everybody

wants to adopt the big kitty.

6. Geez

Is it a kitty? What the hell did they feed this cat. My cat eats Sheba, I dont think I could afford this beautiful cat. My Oliver weighs 8 lbs on a good day.

19. Wiki has a good article

Native to Maine for 250 years they are the largest breed of domestic cat

May have gone ferral and then redomesticated

Supposedly is the most "dog like" cat and very gentle and. Intelligent.

9. I think I read on another website about 22 pounds

[ProudLib72]

21. 27 pounds

That's what I saw in the thread. In other words, "Pretty damned huge!"

10. I was a foster parent with the Morris Animal Refuge

when my family lived across the street from them in Center City, Phila. Being a foster parent was the best time I ever had. I am leaving most of my assets to them and the Humane Society. I urge others to do the same. The Morris is the first animal refuge in the US (like half of the stuff in Phila) founded in 1874, which is how old our house was.

11. Awww...Look at that handsome, cute face.

Hope he gets a good home.

We have several rescues that we've let adopt us.

Hope it's a good sign that their site is down because of so much activity.

13. Looks like...

a domestic / bobcat cross. I've heard of such, but just rumors.

[TomSlick]

20. Reminds me of when Obama was on The Daily Show just before the 2008 Pennsylvania primary

Jon Stewart told him that if he would be visiting Pittsburgh to be sure to visit a certain deli -- I couldn't get into their Web site until the following afternoon!
