It's funny that you bring this up, I wrote my final exam, a 14 page fiction piece based on the Brown Maine Coon Tabby we used to have, Nicodemus! As I was writing the story I was recalling how he was always talking. If I could, I would and it would be a Maine Coon, or two I think. My older sister and I are sharing the family home and she has Cystic Fibrosis. I want to say it up front, right away, that I can't actually keep a cat right now. On a good day when they are both on form it is difficult for me to get a word in ! The quick "chirp" is associated with "I'm here do not ignore me !" The "long low growl" is associated with "hunting mode" and the "iymp-da" is associated with "moving from one elevation to another" Donner the girl is slightly more vocally expressive than Blitz the boy. Yes I do think the combination of trill and meow is probably the best - I always take that as "I like what your doing, please do some more" It is nomally associated with stroking - The very demanding "two tone loud meow" is associated with "food". He, of course, also responds Coon Catese to the tenor of my voice in certain situations. In answer to your question, I am trying to mimic (as best I can) some of his calls and trills-and he really seems to be responding to that. Also the aggressive, tight sound he makes when he is chasing a bug at the window. The things I enjoy the most are the trills and the combination sound of a trill and a meow. He has a different sound when he eats, when he wants me to get up in the morning, when he is in his crazy cat mode. Spotted attraction edited this topic ages ago.Ĭoda is very vocal. Originally posted at 1:18PM, 3 September 2007 PST They also seem to "talk to each other" the question is : Can your Maine Coon Talk ? These phases are easily identifiable separately and make sense to me at least. Blitz and Donner my two seem to have quite a few phrases to command, normally about food but one or two seem to be about affection, attention and play. Maine Coons are renowned or being vocally expressive.
