Hi there,
About a month ago, my fiancee and I were walking home and this gorgeous cat just came to us, barely letting us walk.
We ended up staying with him, after trying to search for the owner. I live in Brazil, and cats that look like this are not usually found on the streets (in fact, it was the first time I ever saw a long haired cat on the streets). By the state he was in, it seemed like he was abandoned a couple weeks before, but he definitely had an owner before.
Searching for the likely breed mix (to see if he needed any special care or food, etc), he fits the Maine Coon breed A LOT, starting by his size: he's about 1-2 years old and he's huge! Already at about 5-6 kg, and still a bit skinny (he doesn't eat a lot). He has the ear tuffs thing, the lion-like collar, the only thing that doesn't fit is the slightly pushed up face. It's not like persian, but he does have a short, tiny nose.
I ask what breed mix he can be because I would like to know if he will grow more, and if his short nose needs any special care.
Thanks for the help!
