Maine Coon Cats and Kittens

[Emeraldgreen]

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).

There's nothing like a huge, plush, fat, white, lazy, monstrous Maine Coon lying around!

I don't know if Zepplin is a maine coon but he is my puppy and you can not tell him any diff!!!

if he is not any help on finding his breed would be nice we would like another one like him

I don't know if this is a surefire way of determining if he is a MC, but does he make a chirpy sound instead of a meow per se? That's a MC trait, in general.

We have had Chessie since he was a kitten ( born in a barn ). Just a little gray fluf ball. he is now 7 years old and a momas boy. Bart and ET came to us on Feb 9, 08. bothe are about 5 years old Bart at 21 lbs I call my big Teddy bear and is now ansering to Bear. he just loves to be brushed and loved. ET is about 12 lbs. and she is very voical. is any thing move with in 3 feet of her you will at lest get a low growel or hiss. She loves to be groomed, but if you slow down or stop you will get told off. She does like to sit on my lap and watch tv. For the most part they get along great with the rest of the CREW. Both are always good for a head but.
