I am so very sorry to hear of the loss of your beloved Bijou. May she RIP and may you take comfort knowing you gave her a wonderful life just short of 12 years. I hope the many happy memories will bring a smile to your face as you think of her. Its never easy losing a fur kid....I know the heartbreak. They leave a huge hole in your heart, but in that hole is love to give to a new baby. Never to replace those lost, but to make new memories. I don’t have a cat, but I do have a facebook friend who has 2 Maine Coons. I will ask her for a breeder recommendation today and private message you with the info she gives me. Hugs EinNYC
Condolences on your loss. We also had one long ago — great kitty. All of our many cats over the years had to be put down eventually, so in a way you were lucky. I can’t provide breeder input as all of our kitties were rescues.
They are the best cats ever. So intelligence and communicative, affectionate and so soft on one’s lap. If you can manage the shedding, you will have one of the most wonderful cats available.
So sorry for your loss. Nothing can prepare one; but you had an additional shock of surprise. Bless you.
Not breeders, but a US map of Maine Coon rescue by state...Hope you find a kitten...
