Cats reach adult size by approximately one year of age. After that additional weight gain would be the result of over feeding, not of growth.This is my 10 month old Maine Coon. His name is Coda. The picture was taken 4 months ago.
His current weight is 14 lbs and if I measured him correctly he is just about 34" long.
He is neuter.
My question is how much more weight and height will he be at 4 years old?
I have looked at various charts, but the data was always different.
Is there anyway to tell how much more he will grow?
Not necessarily. Bigger breeds can take longer to reach full size.

I read that too. Is it not true?
I thought Maine Coons didn't stop growing until they were 3 or 4 years old.
With purebreds you are correct and i stand corrected. @LoriG see the link below.

Her name is Nora, and she weighs 9 pounds. We originally thought she was part maine coon, but now we're not sure. She's very little to be maine coon! We adopted her from a shelter with no background history - only that she came from a cat hoarder.What's her name? I have to ask... Do you know how much she weighs?
She is so beautiful, to bad Coda is neuter. They would have had beautiful kittens. Lol!
Unfortunately the only way to know, is if you know the background of the cat. Are one of the parents, or grandparents maine coon? It's part maine coon when one parent is maine coon, but then the other parent is not. 50/50 so to speakHow do you tell if a cat has some Maine Coon in them, but not purebred?
