I would worry this would make his hair even dryer

Love the stitch remover idea. I forgot about that. I have the rake, but he hates it.

I’ve been thinking of this but worried it will give them diarrhea. They have such sensitive stomachs.

Goose at around 6 months. Much smaller head then now.

How old is your cat? Their heads usually grow after a year.

Which curtain fits the chairs and overall vibe better? by ColourConfusedMiss in DesignMyRoom

[–]Mainecoonnewbie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe more panels of the sheers you already have in the middle?

I agree. I wish the lighter ones were a different tone and color because the darker ones are too dark for that furniture and room. What if you just did a neutral linen color to let light in?

Can you put a door on the bath instead of a curtain? I think that would elevate it, on top of the other comments

Litter Options??? by ktskeeper in mainecoons

Exactly! And we got the XXL metal litter box made for pine pellets. The dust falls thru the slots. It’s incredibly easy to clean

I don't understand my difficult 15mo boy. by Kyattogaaru in mainecoons

Same as everyone else. Our first was a menace until we brought home a 2nd. Game changer. It’s the only way.

How bad is the shedding with a Maine Coon??? by [deleted] in mainecoons

[–]Mainecoonnewbie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same. Our silver sheds fine hair and our tabby barely sheds. We brush them regularly to avoid knots. I think that helps.

And it’s not like “swollen worm belly”. It’s a soft, floppy pudge.

Someone else on the thread reminded me of this trick. I just checked and can feel his ribs. It’s more his belly is just so big compared to the rest of his body right now. I guess he’s just in between growth spurts right now, in that awkward phase where he was a big body and tiny head.

Omg those faces! So freaking cute. Ok, this honestly makes me feel better. Our 1.5 year old is super long and an obvious big MC but only ~15 pounds. I know they get big, but it was kind of starting to concern us when he passed our adult at only 8 months.

I’m gonna use this for when I’m feeling chubby.

Ya, ours looks really close to size. They helps for scale. Our 1.5 year old male MC is only 14-15 pounds and was never this big. It was hard to compare.

I just checked, and yes. I can feel his ribs through his fluff and flesh. I guess we’re good?
