  7. A Maine Coon is a large breed of cat, very similar to a Norwegian Forest Cat.  They are very gentle, intelligent cats and can weigh up to 24 pounds.  For apartment dwellers that love dogs, but can't take the time with them - Maine Coons are a great subsitute - I like to call them dogs in cat suits.

  8. it is a semi-long haired cat that is also a very large breed of cat from the usa. they are gentle giants.

  9. Yes, it's a breed of domestic cat from Maine in the US. It's the state's state animal and they're lovely! It's thought possibly to be related to the Norwegian Forest Cat.

  11. My partner's daughter has one.  It's a large breed of cat,  bred in the USA.  It has long thick hair and the one I know has a ruff round it's neck almost like a lion, and grey tabby markings, he looks very majestic and powerful. She called him Chunky!  

  12. it's one of the most beautiful type of cat!  they are not coons at all, its just a name, but they are very big and bushy with racoon like tails.  they are very soft and easy to get along with.  they grow to around 20lbs or so and make great pets.  they are thought to be descended from norwegian forest cats. mine is a norwegian mix and i'd love a maine coon, too. here's my kitty, 18lbs.:
