Beautiful kitty!! I miss my Buddy. He was awesome. God broke the mold when He made that cat, I'll tell ya.
Was more like a dog! He'd growl at strangers that came to the door, and go absolutely berzerk if the neighbor's dog came close. Actually made the black lab walk backwards, HAHAHAAHA! Too funny!

Don't use a video as background and most certainly do not have it autoplay. Additionally It should be served from your server when it's critical because some people block third party resources from loading.
Text "above the fold", especially on the front page. In this sense it's what people see without scrolling. Try and squeeze in keywords without making it senseless especially from your competition. e.g if you're in city X and the competition is in Y and Z in your about page. "We are located at X a short drive from Y and Z and other Ct. communities."
The <title> and <h1> tags and the two most important text elements on a page. The title tag is a meta tag and is usually what is used by Google for the title of results. This is yours on index page:
This should be something like "My Maine Coon Cattery - Breeder - Bristol Ct." It should be no more than sixty characters. It should also be unique on each page.
The h1 tag is not present on any pages and is used to display text on the page. This should match the title tag. Not having it on index page is common but it should be on the rest of them.

Get yourself a Google search console account. It gives you analytics and they will offer tips on hot to improve pages.

Word of warning, you are using a "site builder" service. It can be very difficult to move to regular hosting among other issues. I realize they make things easy and for a few pages it's ok. Just beware of the issues with service like that.

For now I want to go with the site builder. I am trying to at least get something online. I am way ahead of where I was a couple of days ago.Richard S. wrote: ↑Sun.

I removed the video's.
I don't know what I am doing. Any critisism from you is appreciated. Please keep looking at the site and let me if it is getting better. Maybe consider moving this to a new area so as to not pollute the Maine Coon thread.
Thanks!

How do the dogs get along with them? I would presume as long as it's kitten they could become best buds.
I built security gates that go from floor to top of doorways. Too large an investment and too many dogs and cats to keep track of. In my experience the way dogs and cats get along is up to the cat. I had a cat that was totally confident and would not even open his eyes when sitting on the barstool even when 5 Dobermans enter the room. The dogs left him alone. At the same time, we had 2 other cats and when the dogs entered the room they would race to safety. The dogs always chased the retreating cats but never messed with the one that stood his ground. I had Dobermans licking the one that stood his ground. But as mentioned too large of an investment to take any chances so I have it set up that they can coexist without any fear of problems and could choose to have interaction if desired.Richard S. wrote: ↑Sun.
