Thread: Can somebody tell me if my kitten is a Maine Coon?

Karen & candes, thanks for your further explanations.
I once came across a web page where there was mention of a ‘sweet’ look as opposed to a ‘feral’ look in MCs… pity I can’t find that page anymore.

I tend to agree with candes that the feral look is not what MCs are supposed to have looked like originally. It’s just a look that caught on with breeders/fanciers.

Attached is a pic of Minnie’s and Tatja’s faces. I think there’s a clear difference. Beside the bigger ears Minnie also has more angular features, whereas Tatja’s face is altogether softer (or what I call sweeter).
