Thread: Do I have a Maine Coon?! help

Hey there jmoody21,

Welcome to the forums

You definitely have a gorgeous boy there From what I can see though it doesn't look like is a true MC as he doesn't have the ear tuffs and large bushy tail. He may have some MC in him, does he have tuffs of hair on his paws though?

Keep in mind he's only 6 months. He does have tuffs between his toes and the bob cat like hair coming from his ears

OOh don't get me wrong it sounds like he has Maine Coon traits but isn't a full blown MC is all. MC's have tuffs on the ears from when their young, my 2 boys that I saw at the breeders at 5 weeks old had pronounced tuffs on the ears and the 6 month MC I saw at the breeders had a fluffy bushy tail even at that age. Don't be disappointed he isn't a pure MC he looks awesome and lovely just the way he is a If you like I can post up the pics of the 6 month old MC I saw at the breeders so you can compare?

And I forgot to ask what his name is doh!!!

I thought I would add some picks of the 6 month old I saw at the breeders called William as he is a very fine specimen lol and it gives you something to compare to

He's a lovely looking cat, but I agree he doesn't have the ears for it lol. I've attached a picture of Beau (he's 5 months) showing his off so you can see what we mean! He may certainly have MC relatives though, and he's a good looking fella - looks like he's going to be big too!
