About Maine Coons....

While Maine Coons may look grouchy in appearance, this is misleading. Maine Coons are extremely outgoing and playful. With their clown-like personality, they make excellent companions for large, active families. They also get along with dogs and enjoy having other animals around. They are considered the gentle giants of the cat fancy and would as soon lie at your feet than on your lap. Slow to mature, full grown they can weigh on average 10 - 12 pounds for a female and up to a whopping 20 pounds or more for a male. While Maine Coons take 3 to 4 years to reach their full size, they never lose their zest for playful interaction with their human companions.

"The tail with a cat attached", Maine Coons are identified by large ears often tipped with long tufts of hair, a boxy muzzle, thick neck ruff, shaggy coat, big feet and extremely long fluffy tails.
