An authentic blend of rusticity and elegance, wildness and gentleness, the Maine Coon cat is also a cat endowed with great qualities: safety, kindness and loyalty.

Despite his size, he is a large, peaceful cat, his kindness appearing in his very gentle gaze, and we can say that he is as good as a cat.large. 

He is sociable with everyone, including strangers, and absolutely not moody.

He can live in an apartment, a little reluctantly of course, provided that he has been used to it from his earliest childhood. 

Very attached to his master towards whom he is extremely affectionate, the Maine Coon is a cat that can even have a tendency to be “clingy”.

A very playful animal, he is however not a great sportsman.

His peaceful character and patience make him an excellent companion for children, as well as for the rest of the family.

Calm and never aggressive, he prefers to flee rather than retaliate if he is jostled.

The Maine Coon also has a reputation for being a cat that expresses itself enormously through a variety of vocalizations.

Easy to live with and particularly sociable, he accepts other cats and animals in general quite easily.
