Buying a Maine Coon
Buying a Maine Coon is a big decision, and it is important to feel confident throughout the entire process. On Get a Pet, you can compare current listings from both breeders and private sellers, see price, age, and location, and contact sellers directly.
All listings show essential information about the dog, so you can easily decide whether it fits your lifestyle and circumstances.
How big do Maine Coons actually get and when do they stop growing?
They are one of the largest domestic cat breeds and typically reach 10 to 18 pounds, with some males becoming significantly heavier. They grow slowly and often do not reach full size and maturity until 3 to 4 years of age, which is later than most cats.
Are Maine Coons good family pets and how is their temperament?
They are generally gentle, affectionate and sociable, often enjoying being near people without being overly demanding. Many are good with children and other pets, but individual temperament varies, so careful introductions and respectful handling are still important.
How much grooming does a Maine Coon need with that long fur?
The coat is long and silky with a thick ruff and britches, but it tends to mat less than some other longhaired breeds. Most need thorough brushing 2 to 3 times a week, with extra attention during seasonal shedding and around the belly, armpits and hindquarters where tangles form most easily.
Do Maine Coons have specific health problems I should know about?
They are prone to certain inherited conditions, especially hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, hip dysplasia and spinal muscular atrophy. Responsible breeders screen for these diseases, but regular veterinary checkups, weight control and monitoring for breathing issues or mobility changes remain important throughout life.
How active are Maine Coons and what kind of exercise do they need indoors?
They are playful, athletic cats that usually enjoy climbing, chasing toys and interactive play with their owners. Tall scratching posts, sturdy cat trees and daily play sessions help keep their muscles strong and reduce boredom, especially in fully indoor lifestyles.
Is a Maine Coon suitable for apartment living given their size?
They can do well in an apartment if they have enough vertical space, sturdy climbing furniture and regular human interaction. Because of their size and energy, they benefit from a thoughtfully arranged environment with places to perch, hide and play rather than just floor space.
How much do Maine Coons eat and are they prone to obesity?
Their large frame and slower growth means they may eat more than a typical cat, especially while maturing. They can gain excess weight if overfed or under-exercised, so measured meals, high quality food and routine weight checks are important to protect their joints and heart.
Do Maine Coons get along with dogs and other cats?
Many are confident and tolerant, which can help them coexist well with friendly dogs and other cats. Success depends on the individual animals and proper introductions, but their generally calm, sturdy nature often makes them adaptable in multi-pet households.
How much do Maine Coons shed and are they a good choice for people with allergies?
They shed year round with heavier seasonal shedding, and their thick coat means a noticeable amount of hair and dander in the home. They are not hypoallergenic and typically are not an ideal choice for people with significant cat allergies, even with regular grooming and cleaning.
What are some signs of heart or joint problems in a Maine Coon I should watch for?
Potential heart issues may show as rapid breathing at rest, open-mouth breathing, fatigue or sudden collapse. Joint or hip problems can appear as reluctance to jump, stiffness, an unusual gait or reduced activity, and any of these signs warrant prompt veterinary assessment.
