15 Maine Coon Cats That Are So Big They Make All Other Cats Look Like Kittens

The Maine Coon is one of the largest domestic cat breeds. Males can weigh up to 35lbs (16 KG) and sometimes even more. Although their origin still remains a mystery, there are many myths about them, and one of them is that they are the result of cross-breeding between cats and raccoons.

Another account states that Queen Marie Antoinette of France tried to save her favorite Turkish Angora cats from extinction. Unfortunately, she didn’t make it to America while the cats supposedly landed on the shores of Wiscasset, Maine, where they began breeding.
