Therefore, being the owner of a small apartment, you should not have such an animal, as it will feel uncomfortable and closed on a small footage.
Maine Coon cat differs from other breeds also in its intelligence and memory features. This makes this cat breed the most prone to training. Maine Coon will remember every intonation of his master’s words, and over time, he will begin to perceive his speech as an equal, and understand it perfectly.
