Peculiar to Maine Coons?

greenspun.com : LUSENET : Maine Coon Cats : One Thread

Last night I went to bed and heard this unearthly meowing and wailing going on. It was my Maine Coon mix, Peanut, and she was carrying around a tiny, stuffed Cabbage Patch doll---remember those??? I think she thought it was prey and brought it into the bedroom. She also does this with a "scrubby" thingy that I use with body washes in the shower. Does anyone have this experience with their Maine Coons??? I really thought she was dying or in great pain. She is constantly amazing me!!!

She's pretending it is her kitten. Some female cats do this every six weeks or so when they would have come into heat (even if they have been spayed).

Regarding your MC's behavior. Mine pounces on and drags around my Fake( fur) headband as if it's prey should just cought too. I have a photo of her draggging it through my house!
