Todays fast snapshot is essentially the most superb Maine Coon cat I noticed on the Dominion Cat Present, right here in New Zealand.
The small venue was packed and I might hardly carry my DSLR for the crush, so I had to make use of my smartphone. To make issues harder the cats had been all in cages and taking pictures by the bars meant getting fairly shut.
Shut?? Hmmm. I used to be very reluctant to do that as a result of I’m a big human in comparison with a cat and this is able to be very intimidating, even to seasoned cats who’re used to crowds.
This younger man, a powerful Maine Coon was affected person and unfazed by the massive numbers of individuals. I liked him to bits and his proprietor appeared to know my emotions had been real so she requested if I wish to maintain him.
I needed to take a deep breath to calmly say ‘Sure, Please’ fairly than leap up and down in sheer pleasure going OHMYYESPLEASE!!
He was HUGE and he was HEAVY even for a younger Maine Coon! I made certain I held him correctly below his mum’s watchful eye. Actually? It made my complete day, if not my week!
Above is my finest shot – and I’ve edited out the bar throughout his eye so you will get a minimum of a peek at his magnificent face. I’m together with a second shot of him in his cubby. Plain, unadorned and the right setting for an ideal diamond.
I might have hugged his mum, however tried to be calm and say thanks a lot for the privilege.
