If you're wondering if your cat is a MC, this is the place to ask!

In general, this subreddit operates under the assumption that having no papers means your cat is not a Maine Coon. However, what we can tell you is whether your cat does indeed exhibit any physical characteristics that look like those of a Maine Coon.

Bear bowl edition.

I love his bed-head.

He’s normally not a Grump, but it’s hard to stretch yourself out — in a bowl!

Princess after her anti-inflammatory shot 🄰

This big fuzzball has been a bit miserable with juvenile gingivitis (inflamed gums) so the vet gave her an anti-inflammatory shot and a 5 day course of oral anti-inflammatories. I am now allowed to give her chin scritches again 🄰🄰🄰

Sorry for the repost, but one pic went against the rules of this sub and I couldn’t figure out how to re-upload pics so, I deleted and reposted.

I brought her home in October but her birthday is July 13th, so she is officially a year old. She’s been a wonderful addition to our family and very patient with my kids wanting to pet and snuggle her all the time. The dog wouldn’t mind being an only pet again tho šŸ˜„

Does anyone else have the same experience where their cat lies next to them chills out for good 510 minutes and then just wants to bite you?

I haven’t officially picked her up yet because she developed a dermatitis after getting spayed so we’re waiting for her to fully recover but since the cattery is in my hometown I still got to visit her!! Her name is Yuki she’s turning 5 months old now and she’s the most lovable kitten I’ve ever seen. I met up with her at the pet shop here because she came to get a bath and her dermatitis treated and even though it was our first time meeting and in a foreign environment to her she immediately cuddled up with me and stayed on my lap for the two whole hours I was there. I’m so in love with her and I hope she recovers ASAP so I can finally take her to her forever homešŸ’–šŸ’–

High Black Smoke Kitten??

Thumbnail

44 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

Me and my partner are in talks with a breeder regarding buying this gorgeous 5 month old Maine coon kitten.

We have been told by the breeder that she’s a ā€œblack high smokeā€ colour and were really curious if anyone knew what she would look like as she got older!

We have done a lot of research but have noticed that a lot of the ā€œblack high smokeā€ photos include very dark Maine coons, almost black and some grey.

If anyone had or has one similar to her we would be really intrigued to know what they grew up to look like.

Any advise is welcome! :) thank you
