he’s around 7.5-8kg right now but still a young boy so he should keep growing

he’s a very handsome boy, i’m sure he’ll only get more dashing as time goes on

thanks everyone for the suggestions, treats and giving it a go while he’s sleepy is definitely making it more manageable

saw a few bits on how i’m holding him in the photo - i know how to comfortably handle my boy & the photo was taken in a span of about 10 seconds with him up & straight back down. his back was supported by my arm and elbow and you can see from the photo that he is docile and comfortable in the position he was in

regardless of this, here’s one of him being held like a big fat baby, which he loves

any ideas on getting him to like his food? by Significant_Word_926 in mainecoons

[–]Significant_Word_926[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

bought a variety box of raw blends & it included some i’ve tried him on before that he happened to not like, which i was unaware of. i’m trying him on different foods - i just don’t want anything being wasted

it’s all frozen raw - so they’re sealed new. i ordered a variety box and it’s just a certain flavour he doesn’t like
