History & background

Maine Coons are a natural breed that developed in the northeastern United States, where their heavy coat and large frame helped them survive harsh winters. Named the official state cat of Maine, they are one of the oldest and most beloved American breeds.

Is a Maine Coon right for you?

Maine Coons fit active families and homes with space to climb and play, and they generally get along well with children, dogs, and other cats. They stay engaged with their people and enjoy fetch, puzzle toys, and sturdy tall cat trees.

Care & health

Brush the long coat several times a week to prevent mats, particularly around the ruff and hindquarters. Because hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM, a heart condition) and hip dysplasia occur in the breed, buy from lines with cardiac and genetic screening.
