Picture Maine Coon Cat

Special Nutritional Needs For The Maine Coon Cat
By: Jane R. Bicks, D.V.M.


At first glance, you might think the Maine Coon Cat
is a dog in drag, and with good reason. This is a
large cat. At ten months, my nephews Maine Coon,
George, was nineteen pounds of muscular machismo and
had taken a lion's share of awards at the Empire
Cat Show.


My advice for keeping a Maine Coon in keen shape is
to feed it a high biological value protein nutritionally
balanced cat food. Three to four times daily (no
free feeding).


If you are using a supermarket label cat food, add a
well rounded supplement with vitamins, minerals, amino
acids and fats. This will supply correctly proportioned
amounts of energy, keeping the cat muscular and active.


You do not want a fat Maine Coon, believe me - obesity
problems aside, you could get a hernia just carrying him
to the vet!


As big as Maine Coons are, they are gentle, loving, 
adaptable to all sorts of household situations and 
climates, and they make terrific pets.


A regular, weekly combing should be enough to keep
their coats tangle free, but you may want to add
brewers yeast or torula yeast for that "extra"
hair conditioning, and don't forget hair ball 
treatments!
