Stomachmonkey beat me to the punch. Unfortunately we have never owned or been owned by one. They are beautiful and expensive cats. I saw an add for the breed in a magazine at a FBO(Stockton Jet Center-Atlantic) called "Elite". Caters to a economic class of folks I can't even fathom. The add made me laugh because it showed a little boy and girl with one on a dog leash. It also said they have a mild temperament and eat regular pet food. Not bad for something that looks like it came from somewhere in the Serengeti.
My dark mind went right to the place of a family returning from a day of shopping only to find it gnawing on the family 65 lb yellow lab. I know, I need help[emoji12]
Some of the Egyptian pictograms depict cats that look very similar. If there was a way to pull it off, I'd love to have one. However, "what could possibly go wrong?"
I think I'll stick with my original plan of getting a Main Coon someday. First one I ever saw was in an equestrian tack shop in Paso Robles. Was wearing a 1" spiked dog collar and took up every bit of the glass counter top it was laying on. With his huge golden eyes, the most majestic cat I've ever seen. He knew it too....
