Our breeding objective

Our goal is to breed the true, original Maine Coon with their typical wild look (the extreme feral style) and their impressive size. Their preservation in the original, traditional colours (corresponding to the standard) and without crossing with other breeds (e.g. point breeds such as Siamese, Burmese, Ragdoll or mixes from these). We do not place too much importance on the closely related, old lines and try to diversify the gene pool with rarer line combinations. Our priority is the health and excellent temperament of our cats. We raise healthy, good-natured animals with a sociable and affectionate character typical for the breed. Our cats are very “typey”, large and always friendly and cuddly with visitors.


We do not experiment with unknown or new colour variations. That is why we only breed animals based on proven, old American lines whose origins can be traced back to the very beginnings of the breed. We do not breed new foundation lines or animals with this background, nor animals from the Marala Cattery (USA) or their offspring. Breeding with widespread breeding lines from the large fashionable breeds is not our aim either. All of our breeding cats are regularly HCM screened, gene tested for SMA, PKD and HCM, and tested negative for the Siamese point colour variation (or born to negative-tested parents) in order to exclude crossing with foreign breeds.


All of our cats are also vaccinated against cat ‘flu, feline panleukopenia, feline leukemia as well as feline calicivirus and feline herpes. We take great care to ensure the highest quality in our breeding programme.
