Thank you so much to everyone who submitted their kitties for the July 2026 iteration of the "Maine Coon of the Month" contest, there were so many gorgeous submissions that made it almost impossible to choose. Thank you so much everyone for sharing your kitties with us!

Congratulations to Waylon (and u/avdhulst), you are our Maine Coon of the Month for July 2026!

u/avdhulst says

''Right before the sneeze.''

and

''This is Waylon, he's one year and 4 months old. He ways about 9kg, his "hobbies" are sleeping, eating, getting pets, in no particular order.''

Thanks again to everyone who took part and do keep an eye out for a post about next month's theme!

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.

Bear bowl edition.

I love his bed-head.

He’s normally not a Grump, but it’s hard to stretch yourself out — in a bowl!

Shes about 4 and a half months. Does the evil kitty go away as Mainecoons get older because we can't pet her without the om nom/lick combo unless she's ready to cuddle or take a nap. Either way we love her lol

This big fuzzball has been a bit miserable with juvenile gingivitis (inflamed gums) so the vet gave her an anti-inflammatory shot and a 5 day course of oral anti-inflammatories. I am now allowed to give her chin scritches again 🥰🥰🥰

Tips for bathing needed please😩

I’ve got 2 brother and sister Maine Coon kittens that are 4 months old now. We were on a car trip and they both got carsick and ended up with poop and throw up on their tail and back end. Chanel didn’t like the bath, but was fine. My husband held her while I washed her. Captain was awful! We were both bleeding by the time I was done. We tried covering his head with a towel which helped some. There has got to be an easier way to wash them. Do cat bath jackets work? Or is it hard to wash them through the mesh? Would a shower work better? Any tips are appreciated! Thanks so much ❤️

Sorry for the repost, but one pic went against the rules of this sub and I couldn’t figure out how to re-upload pics so, I deleted and reposted.

I brought her home in October but her birthday is July 13th, so she is officially a year old. She’s been a wonderful addition to our family and very patient with my kids wanting to pet and snuggle her all the time. The dog wouldn’t mind being an only pet again tho 😄

New Maine coon

Hi - I’ve just placed a deposit off my first Maine coon kitten. I’ve researched the breed a lot re care needs, enrichment etc and plan to harness train, and have had Siberian cats in the past. Just wondered if there was any thing anyone would suggest sorting out doing that might help or any knowledge anyone wants so share. I’m so excited and can’t wait to experiment this loving and adorable cat breed!!
