تاريخ السلالة

Maine Coons originated in Maine, a northeastern state in the US. Coon cats have adapted to the region's harsh weather conditions during winter.

The exact ancestry of this magnificent breed has yet to be discovered. Some people say that its related to the Norwegian Forest Cat and the first Maine Coons were brought to the US by Vikings. Other speculations mention that its origins are from the Angora cat breeds or that a British captain in the 19th century traveled with a lot of long-haired cats who bred with local cats.

But after some genetic studies on the Maine Coon, the breed is found to be a mix of long-haired breeds and domestic cats. They originally worked in barns and ships as rodent hunters, which were found to be effective pest control solutions. Today, the Maine Coon is one of the most popular domestic cat breeds all over the world for their personalities and majestic appearance.

Feline Lymphoma

Maine Coons are among the cat breeds that get affected by feline lymphoma, a type of cancer in cats that attacks various internal organs and the lymphatic system. In one study, which included 174 cats, researchers found that this cancer is more frequently seen in male cats with an average age of 9 years old. (Versteegh et al., 2023)

Fibrosarcoma

Fibrosarcoma is a type of cancer of the connective tissues. It’s aggressive and often appears in the mouth or upper lip of cats as tumors. A study done on 25 cats, including Maine Coons, with fibrosarcoma discovered that the average age of felines developing this cancer was 12 and a half years old. (Harvey et al., 2022)

Squamous Cell Carcinoma (SCC)

One of the most common skin cancers in felines is SCC. It’s frequently linked to exposure to harsh sunlight and usually affects light-colored cats or those who have short coats. A study where more than 9,000 cat skin tumors were tested in the UK found that Maine Coons have lower risks of SCC compared to other breeds. (Ho et al., 2017)
