A healthy Maine Coon is a happy Maine Coon.

Maine Coons take years to reach full size, so it's important not to overfeed them as kittens. They're friendly and social but not needy, happy to entertain themselves with puzzle toys when you're busy. Their long coat sheds, so regular brushing keeps shedding and mats in check.
