More About Mainecoon
The Maine Coon, one of the largest and oldest natural cat breeds, hails from Maine, where the breed was known as a popular mouser, farm cat, and ship’s cat as far back as the early 19th century. Known for their impressive size, tufted ears, bushy tails, and luxurious, semi-longhair coats, Maine Coon cats are easily recognizable. Also renowned for their friendly and sociable personalities, these cats are often called “gentle giants.” They are characterized by their intelligence, friendliness, playful temperament, and adaptability, making them well-suited for family life.
Despite their large size, Maine Coons are graceful and agile. Additionally, Maine Coons are often good with children and other pets, making them excellent companions for families. Their thick, water-resistant fur helps them adapt to various climates, and their tufted ears protect them from harsh weather conditions. With their affectionate nature and striking looks, Maine Coons have become a popular and beloved breed in many households around the world.
Maine Coon Physical Traits
Maine Coons are truly impressive in size and beauty. In addition to their impressive size and thick coats, Maine Coons have a strikingly wild yet elegant appearance. Their broad chests, muscular builds, and high cheekbones give them a regal presence, while their tufted ears and lynx-like tips add to their unique charm.
With a strong, rectangular body shape and large, expressive eyes, Maine Coons truly stand out as one of the most majestic cat breeds in the world.
- Size: One of the largest domestic cat breeds
- Weight: Males typically range from 13–18+ lbs; females from 8–14 lbs
- Coat: Long, dense, and silky with a ruff around the neck and bushy tail
- Colors: A wide range—from classic tabby to solid, tortie, smoke, and more
- Eyes: Expressive and large; often gold, green, or copper
Their majestic look is matched only by their sweet temperament.
Coat Color And Grooming
Kitten Grooming
These chatty companions are America’s second-most popular breed for a reason—they dole out love and affection in spades. Devoted to their families and incredibly intelligent, these cats are basically kittens in big catsuits. Gentle giants who are playful well into old age, Maine Coons are clever and form strong bonds with their households.
Most want to be near you but not on your lap. Maine Coons are true family members and participate in all family routines, whether watching you channel surf from the comfort of the couch or following you from room to room.
As befits a former seafarer, Maine Coons are fascinated by water, perhaps because their thick coats are water-repellent and won’t become annoyingly soaked as easily as a thinner coat would. Some will join their humans in the shower briefly, or at least walk around on the wet floor after you get out. They prefer to stand on the edge of the tub, however, and touch the water with a curious paw.
Children and other Pets
As with all long haired breeds, this breed does require some grooming. About 5 minutes per day several times a week is usually enough, except in the spring of the year when they literally molt out of their winter coats. At this time they must be brushed daily for a few weeks. I prefer using a grooming brush like the one pictured to the right. They can be obtained at nearly any pet shop or big box discount department store. The shedding is triggered by the length of day light hours. The temperature has nothing to do with it. I have tryed almost every type of grooming device on the market. The best one I have found may be purchased at Walmart in the dog portion of the pet section.
This breed is most similar in appearance to a Norwegian Forest Cat. Yet there are many differences. The Norwegian Forest Cat has a heavier (thicker) undercoat, smaller ears, straight nose, and lighter boning to name a few. Most likely, in the harsh Maine winters, the survival of the Maine Coon Cat resulted in the large, heavy boned, heavy coated, extremely strong, and highly intelligent cat you see today. Through selective breeding over the years, Maine Coon Cats now are available in all colors with the exception of color point like the Siamese Breed. Black silver classic with white is by far the most popular color requested, and brown classic with white as well as red classic a close second color choice. Its easy to tell the Maine Coon originated in a cold climate.
