Trooper will be four years old in December. At present, he weighs 14.5 pounds. The vet thinks he'll "fill in" a little more -- her guess is that he'll top out at 16 pounds. Maine Coons mature slowly; he'll reach his full growth sometime in the coming year.

Despite being so very large, he can fold himself up into the Wee Kitten on your lap, and gazes up at you with Topo Gigio eyes. You can almost hear him say, "Eddie? Kiss me goodnight."*
