Prestigious Purr
Jamul, California Maine Coon Cattery
Straight answers to the questions families ask us before they bring a Maine Coon kitten home: what the breed is really like to live with, how a kitten is raised here, what the reservation involves, and how a kitten travels across the country. Every guide below is written from our own cats and our own litters in Jamul, California.
Maine Coons follow you from room to room, greet people at the door and often come when called. They are large, slow to mature and famously gentle, with males reaching fifteen to twenty-five pounds and taking three to four years to finish growing. This guide covers the coat, the size, the talkative chirping voice, and the daily reality of living with the largest domesticated cat breed.

We raise ours inside the house with the noise, the handling and the other animals that make a confident cat. This guide explains how our kittens are socialized before they leave, what to set up before pickup day, and how to help a kitten through its first week with you.
