Cats are beautiful animals, with unique facial traits and mellow, fluid body and limb. However, one of the most charming traits of cats is their lustrous, sleek fur. Fur can vary in color, pattern, and length also. These hair coats can protect felines from the cold in winter, and the heat from the sun in summer. It also functions as an aggression display, which usually raises when they are threatened or frightened. Otherwise, it is a feature that exhibits the beauty of your cat.

Maine Coon cats are the largest breed of domestic cats—they typically keep growing until they’re about four years old.
They have a distinct appearance, compared to other breeds: long, thick fur; big furred ears; bushy raccoon-like tail; large paws and slim body and limbs.
Despite their ice-cold, nonchalant expression and manners, they are actually very smart, which makes it relatively easy to train. They are very loyal to their household and affectionate towards family members, although they are not really of a ‘lap cat’ breed. They are also generally friendly to strangers and other animals, though you may not want them to be cautious against you.
