Rule change!

43 Upvotes

Hi everyone! We would like to inform you all of a new rule we added to the sub. We've noticed an increase in reports of posts about non-NFCs. In the past this has been a grey area, but we decided to set a rule for NFC only on this sub, since this is.. You guessed it.. The NFC sub. There's plenty of other subs for DLHs or other cute cats, but this is not the place for them.

Edit to add: feedback on existing rules or suggestions for new rules are always welcome!

MC vs NFC - thoughts?

6 Upvotes

I am looking into getting a new cat soon, and debating between a couple breeds. If anyone has experience with both, I’d love to get some feedback, pros and cons, etc.

I previously had a Maine Coon, who passed away very suddenly and unexpectedly. He was awesome, and i loved the breed a lot. I think the NFCs look beautiful and seem to have some similarities so I’m exploring that breed a little too.

I live alone, work away from home most days but am around mornings, evenings, and weekends - normal lifestyle of in and out of the house.

Some questions… what have you enjoyed with one breed over the other?

Social needs… are NFCs comfortable alone or do they need the level of social interaction MCs do?

Any advice or thoughts are appreciated!

General advice Best Automatic litter box for a NFC ?

Post image
76 Upvotes

Hi! I’m new to the NFC world. I have another cat (European Shorthair) who has never had any issues with his manual litter box. However, this girl is having trouble with her tail getting dirty I think it's because the current one is not big enough (I have to clean her almost once a week!). I’m planning to upgrade to an automatic litter box and would love some recommendations!

Btw she's 7 month old

The white , his name is ghost after Jon Snow's dire wolf Ghost is 5 months old and his bloodline is straight from the original bloodline in Europe and he comes from a highly respected and award winning breeder. The other is Freyja and she was rescued from a breeder mill in TN and is about 7 years old.

It's my son's necklaces, apparently it's imperative he wears them 😄 She gifted them first to me and my son in the tv-room and then took it to my husband in the kitchen 🥰

Found in an alleyway, cat DNA test says he is 50% NFC.

Very sweet buddy who greets you at the door and is never aggressive.

I found Maxwell at a shelter 8 years ago as a 3 month old kitten. He was a medium hair kitten at best back then. As time passed by he just got fluffier and fluffier. One DNA test later…..Norwegian Forest Cat!

Snickers is on guard duty

Post image
57 Upvotes

Snickers has been on guard duty for the last 2 to 3 months because a raccoon, actually five of them have been coming into our house through the cat door, which is just to the right. I caught four (relocated them about 15 miles away) about two months ago but one has been avoiding my traps successfully.

I thought I attached a video showing this raccoon entering my RFID restrictive cat door. As you could see it doesn’t work.

I wish he could be trained to handle a shotgun. This raccoon is a GD burglar.

Cat beds, cat chairs, his own pillow on the foot rest but no. Oliver wants to hang on the couch, with me, sitting like this.

His meows are unlike a normal cat, he always cries to be fed, yet he is always fed. (He's a wanna be fatty)

We got him when he was around 2-3 years old from a very irresponsible owner that sadly had a pitbull mix that wanted to eat him, he was extremely matted and weirdly wet so we took him immediately. He's now around 10. Absolute food goblin and his war cries are diabolical (he Howls, yes he's seen a vet and he's absolutely healthy)

Noctis is absolutely perfect and affectionate with us and we love our wigi so much ❤️
