Welcome to Maine Street Coons—a small Maine Coon cattery located in our family's home just 15 miles southeast of Birmingham, Alabama.
With a deep love and respect for these amazing Gentle Giants, we are committed to ethical breeding and hold ourselves to the highest standards. We pour our hearts (and our wallets) into raising healthy, majestic Maine Coon kittens with outstanding temperaments and work hard to place them in the very best pet homes we can find.
Born and raised as cherished family pets, Maine Street Coons cats and kittens embody all there is to adore about the American Maine Coon cat—massive size and strength, regal beauty, robust health, and an enjoyable dog-like personality. Intelligent, curious, confident, loyal, and affectionate, they will adorn your home with more love and happiness than you imagine.
Maine Street Coons’ breeding cats are meticulously selected for excellent health, temperament, and tight adherence to TICA's written breed standard, ensuring the highest quality lineage. A Maine Street Coon is a world-class example of the magnificent American Maine Coon cat--robust and healthy, friendly and social, and breathtakingly beautiful with a large rectangular body, square muzzle, shiny shaggy coat, tall well-set ears with lynx tips, long bottlebrush tail, and beautiful gold or green eyes.
We spare no expense in ensuring our beloved Maine Coon cats and kittens receive the best nutrition and veterinary care. All parent cats undergo extensive health evaluations, including DNA testing and advanced heart screening with annual echocardiograms to reduce the risk of HCM (fatal heart disease) and other genetic conditions. Our precious kittens leave us fully vetted, vaccinated, microchipped, and insured and are backed by an owner-friendly five-year health guarantee and lifetime breeder support.
Maine Street Coons kittens and cats make outstanding companions and family pets as the direct result of three things: (i) the Maine Coon breed's inherent 'Gentle Giant' characteristics, (ii) the remarkable temperament they inherit from our carefully selected parent cats, and (iii) our extensive approach to early socialization, which begins at birth. We live to make our cats and clients happy and to spread the joy of Maine Coon ownership across the country. Our biggest flex is that about a third of our clients come back to adopt a second Maine Coon kitten within a year.
Competing in TICA cat shows helps us improve our breeding program and consistently produce kittens that embody all that is magnificent about a Maine Coon, as evidenced by our show-winning results. Any breeder that is serious about producing quality cats will know and adhere tightly to TICA's written breed standard, and will actively show their cats to have their quality verified by independent experts (licensed judges). Be sure to check the Last Show Date on any potential breeder’s TICA listing and ask them about their results.
Quality breeders won't win every time, but we will win often.
