So far (knock on wood) Winston has been in great health in his 9 months of life, and is really starting to show just how big Maine Coons can get. He's already about 21" from the top of his head to his butt.

What I'm wondering is when would be a good time to get him checked up. Should this be a yearly thing? Twice a year? Only if something seems wrong? He's eating and drinking just fine, his coat is great, and hasn't seen a vet since he had his neuter/deworm/declaw (landlord's rules :sigh: ) about 5 1/2 months ago. I know eventually MCs are prone to joint problems as they age (especially their hips if memory serves), but is there anything else I should keep an eye out for?

I came the Oprah thread and figured I wouldn't derail it. Always kind of wondered, what exactly defines (and differentiates, if anything) a "puppy mill" and a "backyard breeder"?

All I know is both are pretty drat sick.
