'Monster' - his name - Maine Coon has a unique way of telling his caregiver that he is eager to get walking

'Monster' is a monster! A Maine Coon monster. And he is a black smoke. Basically, it is the same amazing coat type sported by one of the internet's most famous Maine Coons: Richie. And as the video states he has got it into his mind that he needs to jump up onto his caregiver's back as he prepares to take them outside for a walk on a harness and lead, which is a great idea. The perfect way to entertain a full-time indoor Maine Coon.

The internet stories about Monster say that he does this to make sure that he is included on the walk but I am not sure. I think he does this because he is excited and he shows it by effervescently jumping up on the man's back because he wants to get involved even before he gets out the front door for that daily and much-loved walk.

It is fun and excitement. A clear sign that this caregiver is spot on in terms of the quality of caregiving that he delivers.

Apparently, the cat does this on other occasions too. It's because he has a close relationship and he is anticipating something good that is about to happen.

Maine Coons are pretty good at learning how to walk on a leash. It usually takes a little bit of practice. And some cats tend to flop over on the ground as the pressure from the harness triggers a 'kitten response' - passivity when being carried by mom to a new den site.

There are many great videos of Maine Coon on walks on a lead. The best are when they go into the beautiful American mountains trekking. I love those videos and the Maine Coons love those times.
