We got Hank from the local Humane Society, his mom and siblings were already adopted out. Thinking he has either Maine Coon or Norwegian Forrest cat in him?

I feel that she is largely part Maine Coon. Only reason I say she is not 100% is because my daughter found her and a sibling with the mother as strays.

She is bossy with telling us when to feed her and let her out. She purrs loud when she is happy (either eating or relaxing).

She's not afraid of our dog; even as a kitten she wasn't afraid. She is very smart and dog like. I whistle for her to come in at night.

Her fur length and thickness is typical, her body is long and thick. She has a mane. Her tail is typical.

She is house trained but will use a littler box when she has to. She leaves dead gifts at least once a month.

Roscoe. Maine Coon mix?

This is my very handsome boy Roscoe. I rescued him from the local shelter in Muscle Shoals Alabama.

He is 7 months old. He weighs 13 pounds and is 28" from his nose to the tip tail. I've been curious since he was 2 months old if he is a Maine Coon mix.

He's solid black with 1 white whisker. Tons of undercoat. He also has a brown/rusty color to his coat in bright light. He has the softest, silkiest coat I've ever seen. Tufts of fur between his pads on his feet and in his ears.

He doesn't have the super pointed lynx like ears though. Has a tail that deserves a name of it's own.

Whiskers that are so long they can wrap around the back of his head. Very rectangular shaped body, and his belly fur has become very wavy and curly.

Such a sweet boy and never meets a stranger. Very social and vocal. Gets along great with other cats. Very spoiled, bright, patient and loved. Murderer of leaves blowing across the yard... So far. Not a lap cat and doesn't like being held. Loves his toys, cat tree, Mom, food bowl and naps.

Likes to stand on my chest and will share the pillow with me. Wonderful addition to the family.

Jerry The Maine Coon??

by Wilma Snider
(Amherstview, Ontario, Canada)

Found him on a very could day just sitting and crying. So we picked him up and took him home. He seemed to approve of his new home right away.

We left him in my room for a couple of days as we have 2 other older cats. He seemed to fit in right away and not interested in going outside at all.

Posted on facebook and kijiji, but no response and vet found no chip. Is he a Maine Coon? We'll soon find out as he ages. But what do you think?

Maine Coon Kittens?

We adopted these two sweet kittens from a rescue and I am wondering if they are part Maine Coon. What do you think?

I adopted my babies through a rescue. I was told they are Maine Coon. Doesnt really matter because he and his brother are beautiful. We live them both the same.

Mookie, Maine Coon Maybe

Mookie came to me 4 days before my birthday. I say he's my dead husbands b-day present to me.

He was only about 4months old when he just showed up out of the night onto my porch. He's my lovebug!!

I think he may be a mix. What do you think? He's so lovable and weighs 15lbs. He has a long tail that is fluffy and beautiful. His mane is longer now. The vet says he's about 2 years old.

If you have a Maine Coon, you know how unique and different they are. You know you have a special cat!
