He could be, Google "Maine Coon Cat Traits" you should be able to find a site that will list the physical and personality traits of the MCC from nose to tail.
Regardless of his ancestry he's a handsome lad, I hope you share a long and happy life together.

I agree with cooncatbob,wether he is or not he now looks a very relaxed & happy handsome cat so well done in giving him another life,the fact that he has so quickly accepted being a house cat after being the local "rough tom" does make you think there could be some pedigree in him,bless...x

He does seem to have quite a few of the traits and definatly the size! Although not the intelligence part, he's constantly jumping into a closed window and rolling off things! He is an absolute sweetheart and I'm completely smitten with him, as is the rest of the family!! Well except the other cat!

thanks for your replies!

I wouldn't be concerned about intelligence, I think that's actually the girls.
MCC male are over grown boys, many of them are big klutzes and clowns, kittens who never grow up except in size.

I really hope mine stay kittens FOREVER :P Three boys, cute and dumb.

Once again have to agree with cooncatbob & the intelligence factor, girls are busy & bright boys are village idiots so his behaviour does tend to point towards MC,example,one of our boys went through cat flap from sitting room into pen,pen door open so they could get into the garden to play,starts raining,said cat wailing at door to come in,stop painting ceiling off of step ladder to let him in telling him how stupid he was not to come back in via pen,climb back up ladder to see same cat go out through flap into garden & two minutes later,yep, wailing at the door to come in because it was still raining,dim or what...!

He is adorable Well done on giving him a lovely new home. He looks sad in the middle pic - but very pleased with himself in the other two. He's a lovely boy

Wow, he's absolutely gorgeous! He looks so sad in the middle pic, and so happy in the other 2! Well done for saving him, and give him a cuddle from me x

My MC is going to be 6 months old. He quickly learned to go in/out of the pet door to get to his liter box in the laundry room. In the morning he went in, used the box, and easily came back out the pet door. Later in the day he went in, used the box, then meowed until we let him out. I asked DH to help me retrain him to use the pet door. DH said "you can't fix stupid".

I agree, he looks so forlorn in that middle picture like his spirit is broken it's a blessing to see him well fed and well loved.
