This is Toffe
Swirl, our second Maine Coon after Monty Snowcat. We went to Grimsby to fetch
him as a thirteen week old kitten. We fell in love with him straight away
because he was so endearing. At the breeder's, he lay in our arms and fell
asleep. He was so sweet. He was well-behaved on the way home in the car and
lay on me as I sat with him in the back as Lee drove. He was a little suspicious
of the other cats at first but settled in well. He was taken under the wing
of Norman, who looked after him and showed him the
ropes of the household. Toffee got very big very quickly, as is typical of
the breed. He now weighs one stone and is nearly two. Since being 'done',
he has become a lot quieter, though still loves a fuss. He is definitely Lee's
cat and follows him around everywhere.

I am very happy to report that,
after nearly a year of having him, Toffee has let me give him a big fuss.
It was very nice and he dribbled on me.
