How Big do Maine Coons get?<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
An adult male Maine Coon could weigh as much as 10-12kg. A female is generally smaller and would probably only get to around 8-9kg and they all take up to 4-5 years to mature to this size. Our male Maine Coons are bigger than our dogs<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n\n\t

How much will a Maine Coon eat?<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Maine Coons are a big breed of cat, but they are not excessive eaters and you probably wont notice any different eating habbits to other breeds of cats. We always feed quality food and you will find the better the quality of food the healthier and more satisfied your cat will be. Maine Coons should always have access to a quality brand of dried food as they will tend to snack all day.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n\n\t

Will a Maine Coon fit into our family? Are they good with children?<\/h3>\n

Our Grumpy Granddad \u201cBarloo\u201d male Maine Coon has been part of our family for the past 14 years. He was our first Maine Coon and our children were 5 & 3yrs old when he entered our life, and I was pregnant with our 3rd child. Maine Coons are chilled and relaxed cats, they will seek out your company and want to be part of the family.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n\n<\/div>\n\t

Will a Maine Coon get on well with my other pets?<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
All animals are different, but a Maine Coon cat is a very easy going creature. Of course you need to introduce new animals and even babies to your Maine Coon responsibly, but you will probably find that they might pout and sulk during the adjustment period and then they will get over it! Most people find that one Maine Coon is never enough and before you know it you will have whole gang living happily together. They love animal company and will happily befriend dogs and other animals too.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n\n\t

Our kittens remain with their mothers until they are around 8 to 12 weeks old. Once you have decided on a kitten we will provide you with regular photos and videos so you can see your baby . Our kittens are all vet checked, wormed, vacinated and desexed before they go to their new home<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n\n\t

All you need to do is go to the airport and pick up your baby or it can still be delivered to your home address .\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n\n<\/div>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\n
