It seems that we will buy 2 Maine Coons - brother and sister - instead on one planned
I didn't expect to get addicted so fast!

Op het moment dat je een kitten op het oog hebt kan je ook de fokker vragen welke maat transportbox zij hebben voor de volwassen exemplaren. Ik zou altijd voor hard plastic gaan. Onze poes probeert hem namelijk altijd uit alle macht te slopen wanneer ze er in zit. Bovenlader kan praktisch zijn maar...

I have this one and I'm very content with it: https://m.zooplus.nl/shop/katten/transport/wilghollen/draagmanden/673662 Bedankt, it looks very nice and seems to be very handy. And I understood the concept :). The only concern is the size/max weight for a maine coon cat which is expected to be close ...

Dear All, Looks like the 1st thing needed for my expected cat would be the cat transport bag - to bring him to the new home by car. It will be also used for visits to vet etc., and also for longer trips - ( dreams mode on )how knows if we can take him to a journey with us to Schwarzwald or Mosel ( d...

Overcompleet: dikwandige, stevige kartonnen buizen van 2 meter lang, prachtig speelgoed voor kittens. We hebben er eentje met een diameter van 14 cm, en twee van 12 cm. Hier hebben de jonkies er destijds heerlijk mee gespeeld, maar nu zijn ze er te groot voor geworden :-) Gratis af te halen op het ...

Well, I think that the 2nd one would be tall enough (120cm)
The 1st one would lose its "catnapping" sense in case of removal of the top rest place, wouldn't it?

Bij een krabpaal wil je dat ze zich kunnen strekken, zoals krabben tegen een boom. De meest ultieme daarvoor is in mijn ogen deze: https://www.zooplus.nl/shop/katten/krabpaal_krabmeubels/krabpaal_groot/vanaf180cm/408756?gclid=CjwKCAjwh9_bBRA_EiwApObaOMfA5XqtmGMgDOoxY9XCGXsOfxlNZTXvq5UullAkmqK9LRgGx...

My opinion, they are not that high. Thanks! Yep, I'm also aware of the cat's habit to take advantage of heights :). I'll look for something taller, perhaps for 180-190cm tall - but unfortunately I have some real design constraints for the cat tree placed in the living room. There is no such constra...

Voor onze twee kittens die over een paar weken komen hebben we ook wat krabspullen in huis gehaald! Als het aan mij had gelegen had ik nog een veel grotere krabpaal met verschillende niveaus en ligplekjes neergezet, maar mijn vriend vond dit ding al “een gevaarte”, dus ik heb een compromis moeten s...

Oh bottle feeding is fine! Their weight is good too. 100g per week old. Our Pebbles was bottle fed the first few weeks too as she wasn’t heavy enough to fight for a place for moms milk. She would drink by her mom but would not get enough so in addition she got bottled milk. She is doing great 😊 Tha...

Bedankt!

What do you mean with mixed feeding? That they eat kibbl and drink moms milk? That’s fine! How old are they? Our kittens started eating small baby kibble around 4 weeks and still drank moms milk. Think they stopped drinking around 12 weeks because mom would not allow it anymore (because of the teet...

Sorry for the late reply - this is a busy week, the first after holidays (nobody does your work while you are off :eshifty: ) and full of cattery visits in evenings. We met 3 breeders and kitten from one of them looks very promising - but we still plan to see 2 more (at another cattery) because we a...

Hi! I wrote an article about this, but I see it has already been linked by Rik KleinDraakje, thank you very much for your very useful manuals. As far as I see now, we are going to the same direction - e-mailed to 15-20 catteries, got answers from 5-10 of them, the answers are positive (kittens are ...

Rik, thanks for the good advice!
This is an useful manual but another article of the same author is also helpful for me - https://vivianneyiwei.nl/katten/waar-mo ... -uitzoekt/
