Maine Coons is a native cat of the U. S. and it beginnings are still a mystery and will always be. But they are a wonderful breed their pursonalities and looks are what I fell in love with. A big strong cat, with such a lovable pursonality. Their looks have not changed much over the years. They still have a muzzle, their boning is big, musle mass is well defined and they have a summer and winter coat that is easy to care for if you groom weekly. Some are lap kitties and some are not. Some are big goofs and some are very smart. Not all are huge I have a female that weighs only 8.5 pounds but has the best pursonality and all the features you look for in a Maine Coon. Her name is Weezie.
She greets everyone who comes in the door. Weezie has to smell and sniff everyone several times. Most DLH must have part Maine Coon in them because the Maine Coon was an outside cat that developed in the what it is. A very sturdy, hardy cat. IMOA.
But as always I love all cats, but the Coon is very specail to me.
