About us

When the breed became fashionable, the Maine Coon grew ever more refined. We keep breeding the old-style one.

We are a family cattery. We look after every line to preserve that old type.

The cats live with us inside the house and go out to their enclosed catios. There are no cages. Type, temperament, health and size guide every mating, in that order.

The males' catio
No cages. They roam free, with little houses to hide in and old furniture to climb on.
Real branches
Logs and branches set inside the catio, to climb as they would outdoors.
Where they nap
A daybed, cat beds and an old trunk: there is always somewhere to lie down.
The females' catio
Roofed and enclosed with wire mesh, with a tree to climb and a view of the garden.
Hammocks and scratching posts
Tall log towers with hammocks and cat beds, beside the big window.
A little wooden house
With a pitched roof, to hide in and to watch from above.
The kitten room
They are born here and grow up here, until they leave at four months.
At mealtime
There is always food within reach.
To climb and watch
Scratching posts with beds on top, to nap while watching everything.
Mainecoon City

Strong head, medium-sized ears
The old type, the one that was lost as the breed became popular.
Males 9 to 12 kg · females 5 to 7 kg
European line, among the largest domestic cats there are. They don't reach their final size until they are four.
Raised inside the house
They are born in the kitten room and leave at four months.

Available Kittens

They go to their new homes at four months, neutered, vaccinated, microchipped and dewormed, with pedigree.
