That's a really big one.

I was thinking, recently, that if I got to have another cat live with me, I would want a Maine Coon. I like their personalities.

One has crossed the Rainbow Bridge (a tuxedo), and one grey tabby is still with me. He's a really LONG cat with a floofy tail and mane under his neck, but he's fine-boned. I also have a Norwegian Forest Cat; he's even floofier than Tigger (my Maine Coon)... and he's big and big boned... tho none of mine come close to the one in the video. I can testify to their personalities. They're real stinkers when they want to be. Tigger plays peek-a-boo with me, and now that he's older he loves to stretch out against the curve of my back when we go to sleep at night (I sleep on my side). It's so comforting feeling him up against me. I worry some of my back pain will transfer to him, but so far it doesn't seem to bother him. I generally have him against my back, one tabby tux across my ankles, one curled up in my right arm, and one fat tabby laying half on the bed and half on my stomach. When I have to get up to hit the bathroom in the middle of the night, it's a real exercise! And they ALL traipse with me to the bathroom, don't you know!!!
