The most important features of Maine c**n cats are the head, body shape, and texture of their coat. A heavy coat is shorter on the shoulders, longer on the stomach, and britches (long fur on the upper hind legs), with a ruff in front and a long furry tail waving a greeting. With a head slightly longer than wide, these cats present a gently concave profile with high cheekbones. Large, well-tufted ears (lynx tips) are wide at the base, tapering to a point, and large, expressive eyes are green, gold, greenish-gold, or copper. White or bi-colored Maine C**ns may have blue or odd eyes. Well-bred Maine c**n cats have a well-balanced, rectangular appearance.
The brown tabby pattern is so common in this breed that many people don’t know Maine C**ns can come in any other colors or patterns. They might be surprised to learn that Maine C**ns are found in solid colors that include black, red, or white, all tabby colors and patterns, bi-color such as blue and white or red and white, and patterns such as tortoiseshell and calico. Even eye colors can vary from green to gold to blue, with some white Maine c**ns presenting two different-colored eyes. Their voices -- a distinctive chirping trill -- also set them apart from other breeds. Although they rarely “meow,” when they do, it sounds like a soft, high-pitched voice that directly contradicts their size.
