Another one of the members of "Meower's" family shares her "paw"tobiography.
My name is Cajun. I'm a Maine Coon cat.
I have a wonderful family of Humans that I live with; but my main Human is MyRonee'; she is the one who plays with me most, brushes me, feeds me, just takes care of me.
I share my Family with other Animals: Dogs, Birds, a Goat, Hamsters, Gerbils, even Fish. We get along great (most of the time!).
I do have some Furry brothers and sisters; I am one of six: "Tisket", "Meowser", "Stripes, "Genevieve", and "Furball". They were adopted by some other Humans; I wonder if they ever remember me or think of me.
I sure do miss them.
Like most Maine Coons (that's the kind of Cat I am), I love to play; doesn't matter if it's with a ball of yarn, string, leaves on the ground, bugs, mice, other Humans, big or small: as long as it's interesting, I'll play with it. I have a very ladylike "purr"sonality, but if provoked in any way, I WILL hiss, I WILL strike back when you least expect it. *WHAP* I'll belt you a good one with my paw! I may be a lady, but I ain't afraid to speak my mind!!
I even give my Paw to the Dogs if they get on my case. MyRonee' 's mommy has a little three-pound Dog called a Pomeranian; yet she has learned to stay out of my way when I'm in one of my Hissy Moods. I don't know why dogs get such joy out of sniffin' my butt; I find that annoying--not to mention, pure-t disgusting! YUCH!
She's done that way too many times, or else she'll bark her fool head off while I am trying to sleep; you DON'T want to wake me up when I'm asleep! Noooo, NOT a good idea!!
Besides playing, I also like to purr, meow, listen to music (Cajun music's my favorite, but I like anything--as long as it's NOT rap!), lay on my Human's lap, be brushed (ahhhh, that's pure bliss to a pussycat! There's nothing more satisfying than the feel of a hairbrush runnin' through my fur; oh, that feels sooo gooooooooood! *purr*), and eat. Typical cat activities. I also like to lay on the computer and watch the Humans type away on the computer; their fingers move so fast on the keyboards! I also like trying to get at the mouse, but the Humans get annoyed when I do this.
I don't know why; I'm only tryin' to have some fun!!
Well, I am going to go now. Time to get my beauty nap. A KittyCat's gotta' look good, you know, especially one as good lookin' as me! I'm a Diva; I gotta' look my best for my fans (most notably, MyRonee'!). :D
Good bye for now~
With Furry Love, "Cajun". :D *purrrrrrrr*

Ahhhh....Karen....what a gorgeous cat, and lovely little tale about this special breed.
You may want to check out the book I just had posted on amazon.com
It is TOTALLY Maine coon, and full of funny pictures:
"Funny Feline Fotos" ISBN 978-09660959-7-5 It won't be available for shipping until they post the revised cover for it...but I did get one really nice review that made me smile all day.
I feel the same way Cajun, my owner dosent like it when I lie on her Keypad, or flick my tail at her...hmmmmm must be a human thing. I just want to play as well.
Take care Cajun, those smooches and cuddles are the highlight of my day too.
... Keep 'em coming, Karen. You are as gifted at bringing us the cat's-eye view of life as you are with their human "pets"! :)) It's the telling details you give us... butt-sniffing included! And YOU BET a Lady speaks her mind... How else do others know their place??!! Lovin it all! TY Kate xx
