Title: Play tunnel for a HUGE maine coon?
Post by: dangermouse77 on September 03, 2010, 19:28:40 PM

Hi everyone

New here, so hey!  ;)

I have a large Maine Coon Tom & finding it really hard to find a new cat play tunnel for him. The one he has at the moment he has out grown & its 30cm in diameter..

Anyone else with a Maine coon find it hard to please them with toys? I get really excited when I get new ones taking them home & while im jumping around for his amusement he looks at me like, 'Yeah.. is that supposed to entertain me?'  :evillaugh:

Here he is anyway...

Wowzers, are you sure he's not a tiger in disguise? He's huge! Not sure where you could buy a big enough play tunnel, but you could maybe try and make one yourself, or a play tent? Maybe a couple of hula hoops with fabric stretched in between and some dangly toys inside?

Leo is gorgeous... and mahoosive!  :Luv:

I was going to post a link to the tunnel I have but checked online and that has a 30cm diameter too so no good. How about a kids play tunnel...

I'm a Norwegian Forest Cat person myself so I know your problem well!

I buy the ones meant for children: http://www.argos.co.uk/static/Product/partNumber/3674488/Trail/searchtext%3ETUNNEL.htm +

Don't know if you saw it but the ones on the Argos website are two for £15 too :) I'm expecting to see lots of pictures of the tunnels being tested out by the way  :rules: :pic:  :rofl:

He's absolutely yummy  :Luv:

I know what you mean about toys in general - Mosi is a bit like that.  He looks at me as though to say "and that is supposed to entertain me?  Next."
