so our 4th fur baby came to us a couple months ago abandon in a field. we bottle fed her from the time she was about 1 week old. now we're starting to think she is possibly maine coon, what do u guys think?
She doesn't have all the characteristics, but could be a mix. It's hard to say without any papers of parents. Could also be a Siberian mix, Norwegian Forest Cat mix or a domestic longhair.
she's only 3 months and very big for her age! she's got the m on her forhead and short hair except for her tail and neck so thats why we thought maybe part maine coon. she's a sweetheart too we're so lucky to have found her!
You guys are lucky and blessed to have each other. When she gets a bit older post up another pic. You can always ask what the vet thinks on her being MC. I have one that's got some MC in her. But she's not huge or anything. She's got a fuzzy tail and back panties. But she's an odd mix of Siamese, MC, and whatever else. But we love her dearly and that's what matters.

The "M" is not a charatceristic of a Maine Coon, as they come in almost all colors and patterns A Maine Coon could be all black or a tortie for that matter. They should also have fur between their pads, a mane and they make a chirp like sound, like a bird at most times. Her face seems a bit different than a MCO and her fur is a bit short. But of course, she could still be a mix.
She's gorgeous! And for sure she's a tortoiseshell, at least that's my opinion. If you think she's not a tortie, based on what we see in the pictures, can someone tell me why?
