From a shelter in Rhode Island to his new home in New Hampshire.

Ollie has become a very special member of our family. With an extra digit on each paw he appears to be scampering aound the house in snow shoes. Life is (good) in New Hampshire.

Mitsuwa is 4 years old. If I am not careful one day he will actually catch a bird! He is fast and a good jumper.






My Mandy

mandy the cat sleeping


She was a kitten from my grand daughter's cat. Very sweet, but runs to hide if anyone comes in the house. She has a half tail and is very fluffy.




Our Beloved Dillon

By: Laurie & Bart
(PA)

dillon the maine coon

We had Dillon for 9 years and recently had to be euthanized because of cancer.

He was our first maine coon and will always have a special place in our hearts. His gentle nudging, his soft voice, his chatter at the birds, his love of water, his goofing around, his love will never be forgotten...we will always love you Dilly.

This pic was taken a couple of years ago at Christmas and he was a happy, healthy 20+ lbs coonie.




Mr. Fluffy....One Happy Kitty!

By: Karen Stillings
(Malabar, Florida)

mr fluffy

Mr.Fluffy came to live with us in June of 2011. My Husband and I got him at an Animal Ruscue in Florida.

They said he was about a year old, they really did not know to much about him. We both thought he was a small fluffy male cat.

Well over the summer months did he ever grow....and grow. I have had many cats none of which grow as fast as he did. He is 13 pounds and still growing.

We had know idea if he is a Maine Coon, but would love someones opinion. He sure does fit everything I have read about Maine Coons.

He is very special to us know matter what he is. We sure do LOVE him.




Mike Patton

By: Wendy Tremblay
(Saint Nicolas, Quebec)

mike patton, kitten in shoe

Mike Patton is every thing I ever wanted in a kitten. My husband and I were lucky to find her at a farm.

When we brought her home, she had worms, nits, ear mites and a bad cold.

Due to her being in a fragile state and with our older cat always hitting her, I fashioned a baby carrier out of an old sheet, for one month, I carried Mike around with me every where I went in our home.

My husband still laughs at me about this, but my mothering instinct kicked in hyper drive when she was sick, I couldn't help myself, she needed my love, affection and care.

She is always right next to me, whether I am on the computer, the couch or watching television. Her favorite t.v. station would have to be the music video channel, all the movement always has her head moving from side to side, how her ears perk up as well.

I know when she wants my affection or attention, she squeaks at me and will make chirping noises, which melts my heart!

When our family/friends talk about their children, we talk about Mike Patton, how loving and silly she is. It was love at first sight for her and I both.




James T. Kirk

By: Heidi Mathias
(Sao Paulo,SP, Brazil)

purebred black and white maine coon

James T. Kirk (or Captain Sylvester, as we call him) is my Maine Coon Seti's son.

Now he lives in a beautiful house in the countryside with his new mom, Clecienne, who loves to take wonderful pictures of him and 6 cats she rescued from the streets.

He is as sweet and big as his father!!

Note from editor:

"We recently got to know Heidi during a fun virtual interview. Visit our page all about Sons of Horus cattery to see more."

Simon

By: Kristy Abbott
(Minneapolis)

jasmine the brown tabby maine coon girl

Simon was fending for himself in the Minnesota winter when he was picked up by the humane society. We met him 2 weeks after he'd been picked up -- a bedraggled but friendly creature who introduced himself to us with exuberance. Immediately we knew he was to be part of our family.

two cats maine coon and russian blue

Simon gained some weight (he weighs 18 pounds now), grew out a beautiful coat and took over the house :).

Our buddy chatters with a large vocabulary of cat sounds, loves to hunt wildlife and family members, sleeps outstretched on his back and snugs on his mom's head from about 4 a.m. until breakfast time.

He is also the subject of a children's book due out soon, My Name Is Simon.

We don't of course know for sure if Simon is a Maine Coon but we've claimed his birthright nonetheless!

What do you think?




Rusty Creamsicle

By: Pat Hudson
(Greenville, SC)

rusty creamsicle, light red kitten

We got Rusty when he was just 9 weeks old. We already had a Ragdoll, Chloe and wondered how they would get along.

Rusty is the sweetest, most affectionate kitten I have ever seen. He loves to be picked up, flipped over on his back and have his belly rubbed.

He prefers to sleep with me, although he was supposed to be my husband's cat. He loves his cat tree, although Chloe always gets the top perch. She's the Queen, he's the little prince.

The first time my brother saw him, he said "it's a creamsicle", therefore the name stuck. His favorite toy is a Bojangles chicken box and his little catnip mice.

Baby Ben!

This is Ben our 8 month old MC! This is our first Maine Coon and we are in love!!!

Ben is quite the character, he loves to chew on our dog Kobe's bones, sit out on our lanai to watch the birds and gets along beautifully with our other two kitties, Miss Bel and Neko!




Crazy Cat

Willow is almost 6 months old I have had her for two months and her favorite toy is a brown paper bag you put leaves in.

ken coon

Hi, this is KEN. He's 3 mths old. He's my second coon after the first one died at 3 yrs old.

Very active and playful. He's the star of my house now...




Cuddle Buddy

By: Billie Aikman
(Stephenville, TX)

cuddle buddy

We hadn't intended to get another cat after losing our last fur baby to renal failure, but when the University two blocks away started renovating some old buildings we got overrun with rats, big rats.

My husband's brother had a momma cat that appeared on their farm and had kittens. We needed a mouser and he said they were good ones, so we asked for one of the kittens.

The momma cat was bob-tailed and their vet thought she might be part bob-cat, but she was probably part manx, some of the kittens had bob tails and some had long tails.

They brought us one with a long tail, the only one they could catch. We wondered what he was when he got heavy mats of long hair on the bottoms of his paws and had a big fluffy tail.

A friend suggested he might be part Maine Coon, so I found this website and believe he has to be a good part Maine Coon.

He has so many of the characteristics, both physically and personalitiy wise. He is very vocal and sometimes acts more like a puppy than a cat. He follows "Daddy" everywhere and waits at the back door crying "Hello" when it's time for "Daddy" to come home from work.

Recently he had bladder problems and had to go on a special diet we can only get from the vet. We can't give him his "treats" any more, but he still looks for them. He still inspects the grocery bags when we bring them in, looking for his treats. He also does a cute stretch, where he stands up against something and reaches up as high as he can with one paw.

When we first got him we thought he would be a cuddler, thus the name, but were we ever fooled. He will only let you hold him for a few seconds, then wants down. He likes to be petted, as long as you only use one hand. If he thinks you are going to put both hands on him he takes off.

He also loves "Daddy's" long white beard. He has to comb it for him when he's in his recliner and doesn't like it at all when he gets it trimmed.




Sam

By: Louise
(Ingle Farm SA Australia)

sam
I am so handsome

Here is my handsome little man. I got him when he was 2 weeks old, so I had to bottle feed him. To him I am his mum, as he was to young to remember having a cat mum.

He grooms me, protects me from human men and loves smooching with me.

His litter sister, Lucy, lives with us but she has less Maine Coon in her.
