Maine Coon Kittens In Kentucky

Maine Coon kittens in Kentucky bring the breed’s famous “gentle giant” charm to Louisville and Lexington. Big-boned and rectangular, with lynx-tipped ears, a ruff, and a long, plume-like tail, they grow steadily and often don’t finish maturing until 3-5 years. Expect a social, dog-like companion that chirps, follows you from room to room, and handles family life well, including respectful kids and cat-savvy dogs. Colors range from classic brown tabby to silver, blue, smoke, tortie, and bi-color; some kittens are delightfully polydactyl.

Care fits Kentucky’s seasons. Humid summers call for cool, ventilated rooms and constant fresh water; a fountain boosts hydration. Brush two to three times weekly to lift undercoat and prevent mats, then add nail trims and gentle ear cleaning; start young to build cooperative habits. Provide tall scratching posts and sturdy cat trees – strong frames love to climb – and rotate puzzle toys for enrichment. Feed a high-protein, slow-growth kitten diet to protect joints and control weight.

Ready to plan? Kittens typically go home at 12-16 weeks after socialization, litter training, vet checks, FVRCP and rabies vaccines, and deworming. Ask about TICA/CFA registration, parent health testing for HCM, hip dysplasia, SMA, and PK-def, and whether you’re seeking pet or show/breeding rights.
