    5 months old huh? I hope you've been prepared for the size of Maine coons lol .. 30 lb kittens... beautiful cats though.

    I love the intensity you've captured in his eyes.. oyu can see him sizing up his attack and almost see the gears turning in his head.

    Yes I know how big they get Never commit to a pet without proper research first. I also have a siberian husky/timberwolf mix... shes a b****. Territorial. We knew if we got a cat, we'd need one that would be able to handle itself around the dog. He definitely can already lol.
    Here he is ticked off that I didn't let him finish off the pineapple on my daughters highchair:

    Oh yeah! That look says trouble is on the way!

    Nice capture. Great expression. Hope he didn't hurt you when he attacked.

    I love how they can go from innocent and cute....to pure evil in the blink of an eye.

    We used to have an F1 Bengal (the cat not the tiger) that was absolutely gorgeous. He was also a complete spaz. Standing in a door way one night.. he looks up with this look of "Hey I can get up there" and jumps vertically to the top of the door frame... grabs on to the frame.. and slides down it like a fireman on a pole... then walked away with a satisfied look on his face.

    Maine Coons can be just as fun and unique with their quirky personalities. I BET he can take care of himself lol. The second shot looks like he'd EAT the dog if is pi$$ed him off.
