Both lines share the gentle giant personality that makes Maine Coons beloved worldwide. Choose based on your preference for appearance and size.
Get answers to common questions about adopting Maine Coons responsibly
Maine Coon kittens range from $800-$5,000 depending on quality and lineage. Pet quality: $800-$1,800 for loving family companions. Show quality: $2,000-$4,000 for exceptional breed examples. European lines: $2,500-$5,000 for impressive size and wild appearance. Breeding quality: $1,500-$3,000 with full breeding rights. Quality breeders invest in HCM screening and genetic testing for healthy kittens.
Maine Coons are the largest domestic cat breed. Males typically weigh 15-25 pounds (some reaching 30+), while females range 10-15 pounds. They continue growing until age 3-5 years, much longer than other cats. Length can reach 40+ inches including tail. Their size requires extra-large everything: litter boxes, cat trees, carriers, and beds. Despite their size, they're gentle giants known for their sweet, dog-like personalities.
Responsible Maine Coon breeders perform comprehensive health testing: HCM screening (heart ultrasound) is critical as Maine Coons are prone to this heart condition. Hip dysplasia evaluation ensures good mobility. SMA genetic testing prevents spinal muscular atrophy. PKD testing rules out kidney disease. Annual HCM screening throughout breeding years shows commitment to heart health. Choose breeders who openly share all test results.
Maine Coons are exceptional family cats, often called 'gentle giants' and 'dog cats' for their loyal, friendly nature. They're patient with children, get along with dogs and other cats, and often greet guests at the door. They're intelligent, trainable, and many enjoy walking on leashes. Their calm temperament makes them ideal for families, though their size means supervision with small children is important.
