Thread: When did you Maine Coon get a "mane"?

Like most things with MCs it appears there is no "rule" . All my three are completely different

Floyd hardly developed a ruff till he was at least two but by four it was quite impressive.

The two kittens are just over a year old . silver is big even for an MC (8+kg) but his ruff is nowhere near as big as his brother Nero's who is a lot smaller . Nero also has huge tufts on his feet already wheras Silver's are far less obvious

I think the colour type also makes a difference . Nero is black shaded (think thats the right description ) so his maine and tufts are a completely different colour so they look more impresive than a tabby like Silver where its the same as the body colour
