I'm a new exhibiting (future breeding) cattery that is getting into the CFA circuit. Right now, I'm raising my foundation Queen and awaiting the birth of my foundation Sire. I do have a mentor, but I'm also collecting suggestions for intact Maine Coon male experiences. My breeder has never had an issue with any of her boys spraying, but I know that intact males commonly do spray.
I'm in the process of creating a stud room/stud space for my future boy, which I will own outright and will be shown. What are some of your suggestions for stud quarters and experiences with Maine Coon stud behavior? My Queen is only 13 weeks, so I've got time. I still have to wait for my boy to be born, raise him, show him, and then eventually breed him with my more experienced girl. My girl, when she comes of age, will return to her breeder's location, and will raise her first litter while I wait for my boy to come into stud-hood.
Thanks for any suggestions!
