On the off chance that this is not a troll, there are two more
sensible options: an indoor cat, and a cat so large that it doesn't have
to fight. Adult Main Coon Cats tend to be *huge*. Mongrels often make
very good indoor cats.

Are you advising that domestic cats will not fight against Maine Coons at
all due to size variance ? In other words, a Maine would crush all
opposition and the other cats know it ?

Hi, you have a point, but I had a neutered cat in the early 1990s and he got
in fights quite often, if he was challenged !

Sure, any cat will fight if challenged enough, but a neutered cat has a much
lower aggressiveness threshold. They don't spray or mark their territory
near as much. Along similar lines, I had my Deetoo spayed before her first
heat because after reading that it lowers the risk of certain diseases
during adulthood. There's always a number of advantages to having a cat
spayed or neutered early on in its life.

Geoffroy's Cat would do much better wouldn't you say Nicolaas? Maybe a
Pallas's Cat? I know an Ocelot that would be the best
