No, but she's beautiful. She doesn't have the right length of fur (should be longer and have developed a mane) and not the right structure in the face. From the older photos I can see she doesn't have a fluffy or long enough tail. She's a domestic tabby.

Are you selling her? Why can't you keep her? Have you had her as a kitten? She'll be confused if you give her away at this age, if you've had her as a kitten. How come you can't keep her? Be careful about advertising cats on the net.

I second that...there are sick people out there with bad intentions, and you don't want to let her fall into the wrong hands...with internet, you have no way of really knowing who you'd be selling her to. You should find someone you know will give her a good and loving home.

No...cute, but not MC. She appears to be a DSH moggie type.

I know a lady that has a "Maine Coon" but I have my doubts. The cat looks almost identical to that picture and she said that it had the "M" shape on the head. BUT, I always thought Maine Coons were much bigger and darker in color, and no tail?

Many cats have the "M" on the farhead. Maine Coons are much broader and full....and your confusing "Manx" ( no tail) with MC. KatrinaA has a beautiful MC....You'll see the difference in body structure and face.

But look at the tufts at the ear tips, and in the ears.....I'd heard that is a distinctive marking of a Maine Coon. Just wanting to learn more! I'm interested to know why this cat couldn't be partially Maine Coon. Look at the feet, also.

Is there such a thing as a Dilute Maine Coon? LOL.
