20 Of The Cutest Maine Coon Kittens – The Gentle Giants, Waiting To Grow Up

Everybody, meet the Maine coons, a unique breed of domestic house cat that have been dubbed ‘gentle giants’. Although this giants breeding history of origin is unknown, it’s most likely its ancestors came with the ships of 11th-century Norsemen. In our opinion, these fluffy giants are the most majestic breed of cat around. With their stunning fluffy coats and amazing character traits. It’s difficult not to agree. We have compiled, our top 20 favourite photos of them for you to enjoy.

Maine Coons large paw (extra large if the cat has a few extra toes) behave like little built-in snowshoes, making walking on the snow easier. Toe tufts, while adorable, are really there to help keep toes warm. This cat's extra-long ear tufts help keep the ears toasty. Where did Maine Coon cats come from? There are some pretty good stories, though. My favorite involves Marie Antoinette, who was queen of France in the late 1700s.
