We’ve been told they both look like they look to be part Maine Coon. Would love to see what y’all think.

Is Chubbs a Maine Coon Mix?

by Tj

Our male kitten, Biggerton Chubberton, or "Chubbs" for short, is a tuxedo kitten we ended up getting from our cat Harlow, who is a younger than a year old who gave birth to him and four others.

Chubbs is different from his siblings. He is bigger boned and larger in size, different fluffier fur texture, fluffier tail, and those signature ear tuffs.

He has greyish blue eyes and has polydactyly (extra toes). We do not know who the father is, Harlow came to us as a stray and we took her in our home where she gave birth a couple months after we took her in, so we have no idea who the father might be. This is a picture of him.

Ruby

by Leigh-Anne
(Florida, USA )

Ruby is 6 years old and looked like Maine Coon, but her temperament seems different than the others from what I have read.

Also, she has a sister who looks like Russian Blue. I don’t know what their birth mother looks like.

Ruby weighs about 11 lbs. Her personality is hyper, she is scared of being around new people and children until she gets to know them better, she doesn’t sleep near me, and she doesn’t seem calm when people try to pet her.

He loves stranger's attention so much

by Millot
(Canada)

This is Lupin. He's almost 2 years old and we adopted him as a kitten from a shelter.

He has one of the softest furs I've ever seen. He's a big boy (probably currently around 15 lb, but I have no scale to check) and people comment on his size when seeing him.

When he saw the vet at 3 months old, he told me that Lupin would grow to become a large cat. He has tufted ears, but no mane, but that doesn't keep him from shedding a second cat out of his fur this summer.

He also has a distinctive way of moving his tail in a long slow swirl.

As for his personality, he's not particularly cuddly, but really sweet and social, always seeking our presence.

He likes to follow us around and will usually hang out in the same room as us.

As soon as he hears someone at the door, he runs towards it and will welcome whoever it is, whether or not he knows them, by rubbing against their legs until he gets the attention he wants.

He enjoys going outside to walk with us with his harness, and likes to be petted by whoever approaches him.

He is also quick to learn multiple tricks, such as "high five", "sit", "spin", but he tends to be lazier about it than my kitten.

He's incredibly curious and will investigate anything new and try to get his nose into anything I'm doing.

I expect he's just a big domestic cat, but I've always wondered if he might have a bit of Maine Coon in him.

Maine Coon Mix

by Chelsea
(USA)

This guy is just 11 weeks old and I got him from a shelter- I’m wondering if he is a Maine Coon mix- he seems to match a lot of the personality traits and a handful of the physics traits too. The vet tech asked me if he was part Maine Coon- so who knows!

Might Have Maine Coon Mix Twins

by Daiton
(Georgia)

We adopted these fraternal twins in May. When we got them they were really under weight and the rescuers thought they were domestic and Maine Coon mixes.

The younger one like looks like he has more Maine Coon characteristics but I’m not sure. I need help!

Also, they are really loving and hate to be separated from us and each other.

Is Ms Cinnamon Part Maine Coon?

by: Tiffany S in Hollins, VA, USA



This is Carolina Cinnamon - we adopted her last month as a rescue from a high kill shelter, she had been bred (far too young) and got sick, she was about to be euthanized when we found her.

She is about 11 months old. She adjusted to our home in minutes, shows no fear of anything (including our 4 other cats, the vacuum, loud music, or new people) and she has more energy and attitude than any cat I've ever seen.

My Leah - Does She Look Maine Coon Mix?

by: Mavis in GA




I wonder if she is part Maine Coon because of her gorgeous tail, docile personality, paw and ear tufts and her unusual rare eyes and nose shape.

This is Roo not sure if she’s a Coon or not

by Emma
(Marin County California and )

I just got her a couple of days ago from a Humane Society and I don’t have that much info on her. All I know is that she is a brown bullseye tabby

Not sure if she is a Maine Coon as she was born from a stray fertile cat that is a 3 color but not long haired.

Is he a possible mix of Maine Coon

by Vishwas Kumar
(Dubai, UAE)

Hi, I'm Vishwas and my cat's name is Ollie. He looks like a Maine Coon but I am not sure.

He's a rescue cat I took in from the street. Why would anyone would put such a cutie on the streets anyway? I love him like my son..

Stray Kittens

(Chicago)

Part of a litter of four strays that has been hanging around since they were kittens.

Can't be more than 12 months old now. 3 of the 4 are long haired and starting to show manes around their necks. The 4th is a relatively short haired red tabby.

I'm surprised that these long haired cats aren't more scraggly living outdoors like they do.

Happily, they survived our cold Chicago winter! They even seem well fed. They obviously get a lot of attention from the neighborhood.

Joey

by Heather
(Chelan, Washington)

I think my cat might be part Coon due to his size and overall look. What do you think?

Oh Henry!

by Aubrey
(Kansas City, KS, USA)

This is Henry. He is a rescue. I was told he is part Maine Coon.

After reading the article on characteristics, I'm even more certain! He is the best snuggler, loves belly rubs, comes when I call him, everything listed.

Whether he is or not, he's proving to be a wonderful companion for this almost empty nester!

Our Maine Coon Harvey

From all we have seen, what a Maine Coon!

8oz. Feral Runt to 11 lb. Beauty

by Renee Hoy
(Cleveland)

My husband discovered JuVi in the sub basement of an old juvenile jail in Cleveland.

8oz feral filthy helpless baby. And the rest is history. JuVi is the welcoming committee, he loves company, he loves our dogs, he’s also the alpha bathing the other kittens we have rescued.

He’s loves tunnels and toys and long naps. Loves food and snacks.

Never had any cat with eyes this color, they are super pale, silvery grey blue. His hair is short on the shoulders but his body hair is about 3”.

Tail color would challenge any high lighting job done in a salon. Hair on his tail is 4.5” long. We love him !!

Maxwell...Maine Coon????

by Kathy
(Wisconsin, USA)

I got my furrever buddy from a Humane Society at 6 mos. He's 6 now.

He can be aggressive at times but I just give him a much love as he'll accept.

Wondering if he is a Maine Coon as I had one before him and see similarities. He loves attention, playtime, kisses in bed and follows me room- to- room.

No cuddles or holding allowed but I love him anyway!

Brooklyn

by Shaz
(Marietta Ga USA)

She was a stray momma’s baby and we adopted her when she was 6weeks.

Now she is 6 months and 8.2 lbs. Hardly ever meows but trills and purrs a lot. Loves to play and runs around wagging her tail. Loves to play with water too.

Maine Coon Mix?

Thoughts if this 9 weeks kitten is a Maine Coon mix?

Adorable Main Coon Mix rescue.

by Paula Harrigan
(Snohomish Wa USA)

Oliver was rescued from Paws Animal Shelter. He was caked with cement and he had to have a toe amputated and his fur shaved.

He was a scrawny 2 year old that had been living as a stray. I adopted him and never dreamed he would turn into such a handsome guy.

No one at the shelter identified him as a Maine Coon or part Maine Coon. He now weighs 19 pounds and has a beautiful coat. He is lovable and playful!

I have attached a picture from the day I brought him home as well as recent pictures.

Maybe Maine Coon

by Tonya Criswell
(Snead, AL, United States)

Owen is a very big, fluffy and well mannered boy. He was born with a bob tail. Do you think he is Maine Coon?

Maine Coon Mix Maybe?

by Dean Anderson
(Viola Illinois USA)

I just adopted my 12-week-old little boy Elmer from a no-kill shelter. Somebody surrendered him at 5 weeks old.

I found him accidentally the day he became available to adopt, and all the shelter workers were all talking about his personality.

He is very laid-back loves his tummy rubbed and is bigger than other kittens at the shelter that are the same age.

He has big furry Paws and fury tuffs in his ears similar to a Maine Coon. The ladies at the shelter believe he has some Maine Coon in him because he is so docile, loves to be around people and just seems like a very happy kitten.

My last kitten was a tortoise shell female cat. She was the exact opposite of all of these traits, so I was online researching and found this website.

I thought I would see what you guys think. Either way, if he is or isn't, he still going to have a wonderful life in his new home with me.

Mixes and Maybes 2023

Milo Jasper Bialowas

Alexis Smith
Tallahassee, FL

So his mom was a stray living outside our house and we took her in and she had 5 kittens.

We gave them all away to good homes but I kept Milo aka Chonk as we called him bc he was the biggest and ate the most.

He is the only one that looks like this though. They all has different looks and colorings. He is a year and a half old. His bday is June 14th.

Everyone thinks he is a Maine Coon but I’m just not 100% convinced yet. I think he could potentially be a Coon-Somali mix. What do y’all think?
