I heard by someone that my joey is a Maincoon. He might not be a full mainecoon but he probably is part Maincoon in him. He has a lot of the personality, he is very social and a big suck. His personality is very laid-back, gentle just like The Main Coon. Joey has the tuffs sticking out of his paws and ears. Long whiskers and a maine around his neck and a bushy tail which he carries up on his back. I'm very curious because I know he is not a regular Black/white cat. I would love to know if he is and maybe you couls tell by looking at some of the picture. I would love some replies as to what you guys think. Also, do Main Coons come in black/white or just tabbies? Let me know. Tell the truth. Here are some picture of him and there will be some picture with his cat friends.

Those are some of the physical traits of a Maine Coon. The tufts on his paws are to grab snow and form "snow shoes" outside. I'm not a breeder of Maine Coons so I don't know about the coloring limitations. My first cat was an orange Maine Coon with golden eyes.

A lot of people create posts like this where they ask if their cat is part fill-in-the-blank. This is the first one where I actually think it may be so. I think your kitty looks quite a bit like a Maine Coon. But of course you'll never really know, because it's impossible to say without knowing where his parents came from. I love his patches. He looks like the best cat to snuggle with!

I've never seen ANY maine coon wear glasses before.. I would say he looks more like Harry Potter. Jus kidding. I would say it's definitely a MaineCoon mix of some type. He's absolutely adorable.

Thanks for your replys, he might not be a full Main Coon but he sure has mix of Maine Coon. One of his parents could of been a Main Coon, thats why he has very fluffy fur.
