The History of the Maine Coon Breed
Maine Coons are one of America's oldest natural breeds. The generally-accepted theory among breeders is that the Maine Coon is descended from the pairings of local short-haired domestic cats and long-haired breeds brought overseas by English seafarers (possibly by Captain Charles Coon) or 11th-century Vikings. The connection to the Vikings is seen in the strong resemblance of the Maine Coon to the Norwegian Forest Cat, another breed that is said to be a descendant of cats that traveled with the Vikings.

Description of the Maine Coon Cat
The unique head & body shape make most Maine Coons easily to identify. They have a large, long and rectangular body with a shaggy coat. Their heads are slightly longer than wide with high cheek bones and tall, prominent ears furnished with lynx tipping.
Proper Care of your Maine Coon
A proper diet is important though most cats can free feed without any weight problems. Special considerations for middle age cats should be made by using a low calorie feed. We feed our cats a diet of primarily canned/moist food. Additionally, Maine Coons are known to love water so be sure there is plenty of fresh water available.Your cat is safest indoors or in a cat-safe enclosure. We also highly discourage declawing. All of our kittens/cats go on a strict no declaw contract.
How do I become the owner of a LAPD Maine Coon?
We evaluate all potential owners and invite them to visit our cattery to interact with our cats. You must be loving, dedicated, and prepared to enjoy the warmth and excitement of owning an LAPD maine coon. Please contact us if you are interested in the possibility of owning an LAPD cat.
