I have looked at several web sites in the past week. I am interested in seeing what a maine coon cat looks like. In particular the different colors. This will help me decide exactly what color I want. Can you recommend a web site that will show pictures of the different colors that maine coon cats come in.

Thanks,

Cindy

I just got my blue classic tabby boy in september. He has been a great joy since he arrived home. A great place to look at different catteries that specialize in the different colours is:

This is a website that lists a great number of different breeders based on their locations (states). I hope this helps with your choice.

Dear Cindy,

You can look up Blazers Maine Coons. They have tons of pictures with several different colors although, the browns are more prominent. I don't have the website address but you can just put in the name and hit search and it will bring to the address. The pictures are great but it doesn't compare to seeing these cats in person or actually touching their luxurious coats. I've always had Siamese before my recent addition of a Maine Coon and while the Siamese are soft, a Maine Coon's coat is like silk. My kitten "Cooper" is a blue/white tabby and really gorgeous. I had wanted a brown until I saw Coop's parents, both blues, and then I knew I had to have one of their children. The color is just sooo pretty. It's a tough choice to make and looking on the web helps, but I would definitely suggest looking up breeders in your area(if possible) and asking to see the cats firsthand. Pictures, though great, just don't do these beauties justice.
