Thank you so much to everyone who submitted their kitties, there were so many gorgeous submissions that made it almost impossible to choose. Thank you so much everyone for sharing your kitties with us! It's an honor every time and cheers me up massively :)

Congratulations to Gunther (and u/IntroductionClear723), you are our Halloween Maine Coon of the Month for October 2026!

u/IntroductionClear723 says

''Gunther is ready for Halloween ! Gunther is a 6 month old and 6kg (13lbs) Black Smoke. He is our first MC and we definitely got the real deal : Vocal, loves playing with water, already plays fetch and will follow you anywhere at any time if the day.''

Such an absolutely gorgeous, and on theme, picture of a gorgeous kitty!! Thanks again to everyone who took part and do keep an eye out for a post about next month's theme!~ (apologies for getting this up a few days late too!)

Mod Approved Monthly "Is My Cat A Maine Coon" Forum

9 Upvotes

If you're wondering if your cat is a MC, this is the place to ask!

In general, this subreddit operates under the assumption that having no papers means your cat is not a Maine Coon. However, what we can tell you is whether your cat does indeed exhibit any physical characteristics that look like those of a Maine Coon.

We adopted him yesterday from our breeder, this was the first meeting. Cassidy and Saxon are having a great time getting to know Ajax. A few hisses and some growls to be expected. Tails in the air and mostly sniffs and rubs. 😻

Question Pine pellets?

I've been reading a lot about kiln dried pine pellets for litter. Whats your experience? I use Dr Elsey's now. I was just hoping to find a more cost friendly option so I have even more money to blow on their freeze dried treats etc 🤣

Question Fussy eater!

3 Upvotes

As per the the title, had a pure bred Maine for 12 months, recently after a trip away I’ve come home to find he’s lost a bit of weight and completely gone off his wet food, only eating Royal Canin dry kibble, for a few months prior he’s slowly gone off eating the Royal Canin kitten wet food in gravy to now nothing at all.

I’ve tried him with various brands including Whiskas, Untamed, and some big names in jelly or gravy, even gone as far as cooking fresh chicken to no joy.

But overall I’m looking for any tips to get him back eating as normal on wet food for the added nutrients for growth!

For context, dad was a champion show cat of 11Kg, most recently my guy was around 8Kg

Thanks!
