I am a Maine coon cat. I live way up in the northeastern United States, bordering Canada, in the state of Maine. The Atlantic ocean is extremely cold up here, and the winters are long. But my super thick, water-repellent coat of fur helps keep Me warm on those frigid, cold days.
Did you know Maine coon cats have been in existence since the late 1800’s and are considered the largest domesticated cat breed, weighing on average, 20 to 25 pounds? But don’t let my size scare You…for I am a gentle beast with a friendly nature and I love children. In fact, I am hoping to become Your best friend… if you’ll let Me?
