I know, I'm just fishing here...

I need to come up with a name for this guy


A cat like this always starts out their name with the name of the breeder, thus Hillside is a given.
Giizhigwaanzo comes from the Ojibwe language, the native tongue of the Odaawa Indians; the direct translation is

no...

- Gonzo's great, great grandfather was a master grand champion, he had an indian name
- The largest main coon cat ever recorded had its color as part of its name
- I wanted a strange name
- The name had to speak to Canada because that is where he came from

All these things added together and out pops Giizhigwaanzo.

I suspect if I get eaten, it will be at night when I'm asleep. However, I will probably just suffocate to death, he seems to like laying down on top of me when I'm in bed...

Here is a pic of the largest Maine Coon Cat recorded



Now that is a cat!
