Magnificent Maine Coons

     Maine Coons come in many colors, except for solid lavenders, lilac, or browns. But here are some colors they do come in. Creams, red, black, white and blue.
                         
     Again Maine Coons come in many patterns, except for tipped, ticked or spotted. They do some in smoked, tabbies, solid, tortie, calico and bi-color.
     The Maine Coon has a broad body. They have wide ears with tufts of fur on the top. that is what Icall lynx ears. Maine Coons have round "feral" eyes. They have medium length neck and legs. They also have large feet and a fox-like tail.(see above) Maine Coons can weigh from 9-12 lbs (female) and 13-18 (male).
   The Maine Coons are probably one of the best family cats. They love to cuddle and get along with other pets very well. They can be goofy or funny and are very intelligent. Personaly, I am thinking about getting one (or two, or three). You never know.

  1. I had a Maine Coon for many many years. His name was Levi. He's in Heaven now. He looked alot like the last photo but more white on his chest and belly. I was at the city pound and these scary men were picking up their scary dog that had gotten loose and they started looking at this little kitten (Levi) and laughing and joking and I was afraid they might use him as "bait" so I picked him and walked up front to the counter and said I wanted to adopt him. I had no idea that he would grow into a Maine Coon. He was a wonderful cat. I thnk he thought he was a dog! :)
