Mythical Beasts: Photographer Captures The Majestic Beauty Of Maine Coons
1.3Mviews
Let photographer Robert Sijka introduce you to Maine Coons - domesticated big cat breed that sure will leave you in awe. These fluffy cats are basically the closest thing to a lynx that you can share your home with, without worrying too much about your well-being.
Sijka always saw Maine Coon cats as majestic, almost mythical, not overly cute cats and now he came up with a way to share that image with the rest of us: "My passions are cats and photography, I do my best to combine these two things as good as possible," the photographer shares on his website. And he managed to combine those passions perfectly in his royal-like Maine Coon cat photo series.
He got the inspiration from a "photo of Dolce Vita and De La Loo - two of the most majestic black Maine Coon kittens photographed beautifully on a simple black background," Robert told Cat Behaviourist. And ever since that moment, he was creating these mesmerizing portraits himself.

This one makes me think of Scar from The Lion King, perhaps because he's dark. His paws are huge and powerful looking.
Cats have never forgotten that they were once Gods in Ancient Egypt. The Egyptians were right!

I would absolutely LOVE to have this baby! He or she is just GORGEOUS!!! ????
Put YOUR hands on the table and let's play slaps! (I'll only need to play once... I don't miss, and you won't have a hand left to play again)
This cat is amazing,,The beauty in the face and eyes says it all.
Please can anyone recommend a breeder for this colour? I only ever found the red or silver ones. I would love a darker one. Thank you in advance
You can contact Gwendalyn Cole of Coonamata Cattery in Indiana. She's on Facebook and has her own website with the latter name (w/o Indiana). She might be able to steer you to a desired breeder.
