Maine Coon Kittens In Minnesota

Maine Coon kittens in Minnesota grow into the gentle giants families rave about. Broad-chested, rectangular bodies, tufted ears with lynx tips, and a plume-like tail give them a rugged, winter-ready look, while their dog-like temperament keeps them by your side. Expect chirps and trills, confident curiosity, and easygoing manners with kids, cats, and even friendly dogs.

Wonder how big? Many males reach 15-20 pounds, with growth finishing around 3-4 years. Start with large-breed kitten food and steady, portioned meals to support slow, healthy development. Add a water fountain to boost hydration, especially during Minnesota’s dry winters and humid summers.

Groom the dense undercoat two to three times a week; use a wide-tooth comb for seasonal sheds, then tidy with a slicker. Trim nails, clean ears, and schedule regular brushing sessions as bonding time.

Well-raised kittens leave for new homes between 12-16 weeks after socialization, litter training, and vet care. Look for FVRCP and rabies vaccines, deworming, microchip, and records. Ask about DNA testing for HCM, SMA, and PK-def, plus hip evaluations and, when available, HCM echo results.

Crave color variety? Brown classic tabbies, silvers, blues, smokes, creams, torties, and bi-colors appear across litters in Minneapolis, St. Paul, Rochester, and Duluth.
