Maine Coon Paws Photo

I have the best Maine Coon paws photo! The author is a Flickr photographer, username by ~Sage~.

The TICA Maine Coon breed standard demands tufted feet: "Feet: Large, round and well- tufted." The breed standard is the document that sets out guidelines for the desired appearance of a purebred cat according to the cat association concerned.

You won't see better, or longer, or more pronounced Maine Coon paw tufts.
