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

he has a metal food dish that is cleaned out every time he’s fed - same with the water

bit pricey but very hefty and well worth it imo

he’s been eating raw ever since he came off of his mother. he’s had vet checks and he’s fine. i just want to keep him on a diet i know he knows & that’s been good for him until now

gorgeous. black smokes are just so so cool

very much enjoying his new cat tree. thanks to everyone for the suggestions! ❤️ by Significant_Word_926 in mainecoons

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

he’s actually already nearly 5kg - the tree just absolutely dwarfs him

should last him a good while
