50 Maine Coon Cats That Will Make Your Cat Look Tiny
The Maine Coon cat is one of the largest domesticated breeds of felines. In fact, the title for the longest cat in the 2010 Guinness World Records was held by a cat of this breed. His name is Stewie, who measured 48.5 in (123 cm) from the tip of his nose to the tip of his tail. Male Maine Coon cats can weigh up to 35 lb (15.9 kg). The origins of the Maine Coon, however, are shrouded in mystery. Although genetically impossible, one myth holds that this is the result of breeding between cats and raccoons. Another states that Marie Antoinette, the Queen of France, tried to flee execution with her favorite Turkish Angora cats. While she didn't make it to the US, the cats supposedly landed on the shores of Wiscasset, Maine, where they began to breed. This might also explain why this breed is called Maine.
#1 Giant Kitty
Mine is a bit smaller with same colors, only a year or two old (we got him off the street) and he is already just about bigger that my friends full grown tabby
#4 Girl With A Beautiful Maine Coon Cat
I think I would be afraid of them... ^^ if they are as quick and agile and moody as regular sized cats.. yikes! :D
#6 Maine Coon Cat
Not a Persian, note the elongated snout and the prominent "M" coloring on his forehead. Clearly a Maine Coon.
#7 Huge Maine Coon At The Vet
Its a polydactyl Maine Coon, they can have either extra toes or thumbs. Yes cats really can have thumbs.
#20 Maine Coon Cat And Kitten
This one looks a lot like my Monster, except he is a short haired. I suspect he is only half Maine Coon because he's only about 38 pounds and doesn't have the long hair.
#43 Maine Coon Cat
I absolutely love that color. More cream like a palomino horse than an orange tabby stunning
What do you think ?
Nope! No photoshop!!! Those cats are that large, I own one myself. Not everything is photoshopped. :) Maine Coons are just the best!
You're right, but there is always a photoshop whore on every article... They don't even know how to use photoshop, what you can or can't do with it, but still, they see photoshop pictures everywhere.
