Description of the Main Coon
The Main Coon’s body is medium to large, muscular, and broad-chested, with a proportionate rectangular look. The Maine Coon’s coat is bushy and heavy, but shorter on the shoulders and longer on the neck, tail, and stomach.
Grooming of the Main Coon
The Main Coon’s long coat is misleadingly easy to care for. A good combing two times a week eliminates the matting of fur and reduces hairballs and shedding. Most will endure an occasional bath when introduced to the habit as a kitten.
History of the Main Coon
One of the most old cat breeds in North America, the Maine Coon is generally regarded as a native to the state of Main. A common (though biologically not possible) belief is that it originated from mating with semi-wild, domestic cats and raccoons. This myth, bolstered by the hairy tail and the coloring (raccoon-like) led to the taking on of the name ‘Maine Coon’.
Personality of the Main Coon
The Main Coon has a social, charming, and family-oriented personality. It is one of the largest of the cat breeds; the Maine Coon also makes his presence known in the most delightful way. They take up extra room on the couch than the typical cat, even though they’re just as famous for squeezing themselves into unlikely corners.
