Maine Coon

Breed of domestic longhaired cat native to North America. It is the oldest American breed and one of the largest. Its fur is shaggy and uneven in length and of a coppery brown colour with black markings. It has a thick, bushy tail similar to the raccoon from which it gets its name.

The breed was registered in 1861, but was only officially recognized in the USA in 1976.
