Maine Coon
 
The Maine Coon is known for
its large size, easygoing temperament, and rugged appearance. This native
New England breed is well-adapted to that harsh climate, with a heavy,
shaggy coat, bushy tail, and tufted ears and toes. Despite its name, the
Maine Coon cat is not a relative of the raccoon. Though the brown tabby
pattern is perhaps the best known, Maine Coons are available in a variety
of colours and patterns. The
Maine Coon is accepted in all major cat registries.
