Maine Coon Cats and Kittens

Sky turned 5 in June and when I adopted him he had been shaved because his fur was badly matted. I've been told that he's a Siamese/Norwegian Forest Cat Mix. He hasn't matted at all since I've owned him. He also acts more like a dog than a cat.

Here he is at his fluffiest.

This is how he normally looks.

Pictures of Ziggy coming up.

This is Ziggy Stardust. She's turned 1 in June and she's become a very large fluffy girl. She's already 13lbs. She has such a tiny meow and is a real sweetheart.

Look at that tail.

I love the odd eyed brown tabby and white. I have been going to cat shows for over 10 years and have never seen a tabby that had gold and blue eyes. All three are very beautiful. And the butt shot made me laugh! What a great pictures. Thanks for sharing them.

Thanks. Yes, Ziggy Stardust is a very unique looking cat. She and her brother,who is an orange and white short haired cat,were dumped at a feral park.

I adopted her from K & L who is another PT'er and she and her husband live in Arizona. They ended up keeping Ziggy's brother and his name is Chowder.

rpcathouse, I see that you've figured out how to post pictures.

These kittens sure are adorable.

Please keep the pictures coming.

It took a while to get it done but finally did it. With changing jobs and the cats not much time to play. And now I have a new litter that was born Sept. 25th

my time is even less. Here is a picture of the new litter. There is 4 red and white males and one female a blue tortie and white.

If I ever got a cat, I think I would like a Maine Coon. But I don't know - I've never had a kitty, but plan to get one once I'm out on my own.

I've never had one before, though, so I don't know what breed would best suite my lifestyle.

Hi, I'm kind of late in discovering this post and replying to it but here's my Maine Coon. His name is Tiger and he is about 11 years old. I found him living as a stray in a snowbank in Quebec, Canada. He was literallly living under a pinetree! One night he ran into a video store across from his pine tree (I guess to try and get warm) and that's when I decided to take him home. I canvassed the neighborhood to make sure I wasn't taking someones cat and everyone said "oh ya, that's one of the cats that live under that tree" He was about 10 months at the time. He is an awesome cat and I think so majestic. When he runs he reminds me of a lion running in a field with his mane blowing to one side! LOL
I included a pic of his paw because I'm amazed at how big they are. He's a very sweet cat but I wouldn't want to get on his bad side. He can be ferocious, but with good reason usually (like another cat trying to overthrow his position as 'king' of the household which they try from time to time).

How lucky for Tiger and for you! He is a handsome boy. Love those big brown tabbies.

Storm reminds me a great deal of Einstein! (The cat, not the human!

)

When Steinie was a baby, the fur on his head stuck straight out all over the place, which reminded me of a famous photo of Albert Einstein -- and you get it.

This guy is just a very pretty "mutt", I think. My vet, impressed by his beautiful coloring (and amused by his very, shall we say, ample size), said, "There must be a Russian Blue in him somewhere -- maybe literally!"

Regardless of his less than dainty waistline, Einstein is about the sweetest guy around!
