yeah...years back when it cost $1-2k+ to get a registered one, we had no idea people would steal them. my wife's big 24lb we had for 16 years passed. we got the maine coon because it's the biggest domestic breed.

had a friend get his bird stolen too, but recovered it a year and a half later.
When I was around 12 I had my Siamese cat stolen. Was absolutely devastatedā€¦..he was more like a dog than a cat. He would walk me half way to school, and wait for five minutes before going home, and every afternoon after school he would be waiting at the halfway point to walk me home.
if I was at a friends house use to sit at my bedroom door and cry till I came homeā€¦.drove my mum nuts,, but I absolutely loved that cat

Thatā€™s a great story about your cat and walking to school. Iā€™m so sorry he was stolen from you.

Thank youā€¦itā€™s funnyā€¦Iā€™m almost 50 now, still makes me sadā€¦how anyone could take someoneā€™s pet is beyond meā€¦they become such a big part of your family.

Hello,

I grew up in Austin and then moved to Dallas after college. I owned an ā€˜82 280ZX in high school and most recently a ā€˜71 240Z.

I have 2 Bearded Collies and a Maine Coon Kitten!

I worked the past 2 days with the bad weather. Drove from Alvarado to White Settlement and went to pick up a few of my employees. Had fun while out driving though.

I stopped by Fred Haas Nissan near Tomball on a recent nice day when I took my 240Z out for a drive. I was thinking it would add some cred when trying to get some info on the new Z. A person from Nissan corporate happened to be there & I was able to visit with her. Unfortunately, I did not obtain anything useful, other than in her opinion mid summer to fall was more the timeframe for cars to be at dealers. I hope she was being pessimistic and was not privy to actual dates dealers would begin to get the new Z. They were not taking names for a sales list or deposits. Not much info, but I thought I would share anyway.
