Meet Bubba! We adopted Bubba and his sister, Nancy, eight years ago. On September 28th, 2013. They were not siblings but were fostered together and had similar beginnings. Bubba was born feral somewhere in East Texas and was rescued by a Maine Coon rescue group. He is most definitely part Maine Coon. We actually named him Ronnie, but the nickname Bubba showed up early and he responds to Bubba!
We purposefully looked for Maine Coons when we adopted Nancy and Bubba. Our previous cat, Grayson, was also feral and part Maine Coon. That is when we learned to love the breed. Known as the Gentle Giant, Maine Coons are awesome cats. (Sadly, we lost Grayson after only 8 years.)
Bubba is special because he plays fetch! In fact, that is how I decided that we needed to adopt him! The website had said that he loved to play fetch. He will chase after anything and bring it back to you. Scrunchies, crumpled paper, the plastic ring from a milk carton, toy mice. He mostly loves to chase them, though.
Bubba is one color: Gray. He does have a couple of white hairs now, but he is solid gray. An interesting contrast to his sister Nancy with her tabby markings. I sometimes call them Monochrome and Kodachrome.
Bubba's favorite human is his daddy. He loves his daddy's lap, but only that one. He has a very loud purr for his daddy and occasionally I feel honored when he deigns to purr for me.
Bubba's fur is soft as velvet, especially his belly. But don't rub it even if it seems he invited you to, it is always a trap filled with claws and teeth. He also always walks around with his tail straight up in the air!
