About Maine Coons
The Maine Coon is a breed full of history, heart, and charm. Originating in the Northeast, these cats were once valued as hardy farm and ship companions, with their thick coats, tufted ears, and long, bushy tails perfectly suited for the harsh winters. Over time, they became known not just for their rugged beauty, but for their gentle, affectionate nature, earning them the nickname “gentle giants.”
Some even believe the breed’s history stretches back to the days of the Vikings. It’s said that long haired cats may have traveled with the Norse explorers on their ships, keeping them free of vermin. When these cats reached North America, they may have helped lay the foundation for what we now know as the Maine Coon.
Here at our cattery, we see those qualities shine every day. Our Maine Coons are playful, intelligent, and deeply loyal. They love to follow us around the house, chirping and trilling as if they’re carrying on a conversation. While they may not always curl up on your lap, they prefer to be right beside you, keeping you company with their calm and loving presence.
Maine Coons are also wonderfully unique in their growth and development. Unlike most cats, they take their time maturing, often reaching their full size between 3–5 years. Watching our kittens grow into their full, majestic selves is one of the most rewarding parts of raising them.
