What kind of a cat is that! Its so pretty you just want to hug it. 

Awesome cats.  

Holy cow - those r beautiful felines!! 

They are called Maine Coon's, and we have a profile name of Maine Coon, and I was telling her to check out my post. 

Maine Coon The Maine Coon is one of the largest domesticated breeds of cat. It has a distinctive physical appearance and valuable hunting skills. It is one of the oldest natural breeds in North America, specifically "native" to the state of Maine, where it is the official state cat. 

They are bigger than my Bengal cats! 

The ears look a bit like a lynx. Beautiful cats.  

Aww reminds me of my handsome Teddy who we lost just over a year ago, way too young. They are the most spectacular cats and I will never own another breed. It's true they have the personality of a dog. So vocal, always by your side and the males truly are clowns. If you haven't had the pleasure of meeting one, you should make it happen! 

I am just curious if they can get along with dogs? They are really beautiful and large. My dogs do fine with my tortoise. 

Also curious if they could do Ok in a warm climate? They are obviously cold climate cats. 

Usually with their easygoing personality they are great with children and other pets. I actually got him from a foster home and he lashed out a bit when it was just us and I had to leave him home alone to go to work. I took him down to visit my parents who have 2 cats and a dog and he came straight out of his cage, with his tail up and acted like he owned the place. It was unbelievable! Needless to say, he didn't come back home with me as the humans and animals fell in love and I wanted him to be happy. :) 

Wow, that is a very cool story. The pictures really got me curious. They must be expensive. I have seen some amazing pets, like expensive, miniature dogs. My tortoise is quite unique, and is getting so big, I can't pick him up. 

Love the pics you post. Have a great weekend! :)  

Thanks ALL. and Time2FixMe and Ginsin! I thought these were fascinating pictures from Imgur.
