God has truly blessed us by bringing Felicia into our lives. She adores Seven and was able to embrace what a loving, gentle, and loyal kitty he is. She did some research and was able to determine that his breed is called a Maine Coon...this sparked my interest, so I looked up a few facts about them!
Maine Coons:
*trainable, described as “dog like”
*devoted, playful, and loving to their chosen humans
*fascinated by water, perhaps because their thick coats are water-repellent and won't become annoyingly soaked
*The heavy all-weather coat, shorter on the shoulders and longer on the stomach and britches, makes the cat appear larger than he really is.
*The Maine Coon of today is known for a sturdy, rugged appearance, which includes an uneven, shaggy coat of three distinct lengths and a long, well furnished tail. They carry that tail proudly and use it to surround themselves for warmth and protection.
* has large, well tufted paws to allow ability to walk on top of snow despite size and weight
* ears are large and well tufted for protection and warmth
*known for their intelligence, kindly disposition, friendliness towards just about anything and are especially good with children and other pets...for these reasons, they have been dubbed the “Gentle Giant” of the cat fancy and are commonly sought after as family pets, companions, and therapy cats.
Felicia loves Seven so much and has such a heart for our situation that she agreed to shave him for free every two months if it meant that we could keep him. She has also been looking into places that she knows of who would allow us to have both of the pets. Will you pray with us that somehow, we are able to keep our family together?
Much love,
Andrew, Heather, Jetta and Seven!
