Thanks to Jacky Edwards
of Dark Tower Maine Coons for this lovely, big-boned boy.
Ben is a real softy, loves everyone and gets on well with all our
cats.
Having
decided we would buy our next Maine Coon kitten from Jacky Chris
waited a long time for the right one to be born.
He knew
exactly what he wanted and Ben was it. We have not been
disappointed, though his "wild" rather than glamorous look is not
favoured by some judges. We love it.
It took
us 3 years of showing to make him up to a Premier. There are so many
excellent Maine Coons on the show bench that competition is stiff
and it takes time to qualify, but Maine Coon owners are all very
friendly and make showing an enjoyable experience.
Despite
the judges opinion we still think we bring home the best Maine Coon after
every show.
(But
then so do we all!)
He
enjoyed showing as a younger cat, but not any more, so we have
retired him from the show bench altogether and just enjoy his
company at home.
