Statement:
Our Maine Coons are a labor of love. We use a board-certified cardiologist that uses a Dopplar to examine all our breeding cats, and we DNA-test for the MyBPC-3 gene mutation for HCM and do some SMA testing as well. Happy, healthy cats are our primary goal. We choose homes for our kittens carefully and enjoy followups from our kitten buyers. Our kittens and cats are raised with a darling German Pinscher. We enjoy showing, for meeting new friends, staying around the positive people we love, and meeting with visitors to shows to see all the different breeds. We also love the opportunity to compare the breed standard qualities of our cats with those of other breeders worldwide. Maine Coons are so loving and will touch your heart. Yes, they are truly gentle giants with hearts to match. When I retired from teaching, I could have chosen any breed, and every day I am thankful I chose Maine Coons.
