Club. A
number of photos have been included to let you see the wide variety of colours
we have. If
you are considering a purchasing a Maine Coon Kitten, then there is information
on how to go about this in our “Guide to buying a kitten” page. For a list
of breeders in your area, visit our “Kittens Currently Available
Countrywide" and "Club Maine Coon Breeders” page. The
club currently has about 500 members, both in Britain and abroad, including
several Maine Coon breeders and judges in America. Membership is open to anyone,
you do not have to own a Maine Coon to join. Many of our members do not breed or
show, but just enjoy living with a Maine Coon and the club caters for everyone. The
club holds several events each year. We publish three newsletters, as well as
holding the club show, a seminar and annual photographic competition. The
winning photo is used as the front cover for the Maine Coon Calendar each year.
Yes, the club even publishes its own calendar, with photos of members’ cats on
each page! Please
feel free to contact a member of the committee if you need help or advice. Missing
