Have a look at the TICA MC breed standard with photos to judge:

(you will have to dowload a zip file containing a PDF)
Voice is also a key characteristic of MCs.

Possible Maine Coon mix
Thats a hard one,when I first looked he put me more in mind of a Norwegian Forest but looking again not so sure but whatever he is he is stunning,such a lovely blue colour,pleased to have you both here with us on the forum,more pictures alongside updates would be great ...
Just as I submitted this post another picture had appeared,he has got very long & thick boned legs but still not sure about his parentage but have to say you have all been very lucky to find each other , he looks so confident you would never guess that he has only just arrived into your household which points to perhaps MC in there somewhere,that is their nature,me thinks you are all going to have a lot of fun.Last edited by jckkerrison; 28th March 2011 at 04:19 PM.

The adoption people wanted to claim him as part himalayan but I owned a pure bred and he looks nothing like our himalayan. I will try to get some better pictures of him, he is more settled in today. His front on view he really gives me hopes that he is part MC...he really is quite a gorgeous cat! Either way we are proud to have him. Such a sweetie! My fiance named him Lenin, he has another Russian Blue named Stalin, so he thought it would be fitting to keep him in the Russian Dictator family lol.

Your cat is a gorgeous lad, but I feel sorry for him to bear such an ugly name.
I love kissing my cats, but I would never kiss anybody with name Lenin or Stalin.
The name can carry bad aura, and your kittie wants to have much happier life than he had before he met you. Of course, it's your cat and can name him all you want.
I still feel sorry for poor cat. If he only understood whose name he got he would be screaming.

He looks somewhat like Montgomery, our Maine Coon/Russian Blue mix. Kind of unique, they are in that each will have some more distinct features of either breed. Our vet is quite familiar with the MC breed and was positive Montgomery was Maine Coon and Russian Blue. We'd have never known had it not been for her expertise in the feline world. The photo gives two good views, the reflection showing the distinctive box face.
