Here's a list of Maine Coon breeders in Australia and some extra information

-

Are there Maine Coon cats in Australia? Yes, there are many Maine Coon cats in Australia because:

  1. There are about 25 registered Maine Coon breeders in Australia (see complete list below) and;
  2. Maine Coon breeders in North America, Europe and Russia export internationally using airfreight. 

There is no barrier in shipping purebred cats over vast distances using air travel. Breeders tend to use a shipping business for a professional service. The cats can be in the passenger section and there might be a supervisor in attendance to keep an eye on cat health. It depends what you are paying the breeder who organises the shipping.

Feniks Maine Coons recently bred kittens
'Feniks Maine Coons' - recently bred kittens for sale I expect.

However, Australian citizens who want to adopt a Maine Coon from an Australian cattery will have no difficulties in finding a breeder. You will find a wide variety in appearance and quality, I'd expect. The Maine Coons that we see featured online in some videos for example are usually exceptional and very large with extreme features thanks to extreme selective breeding. Not all Maine Coons are like these, far from it.

I expect there to be some Maine Coon rescue cats from time to time but very few. Some people do relinquish their pedigree cat to a shelter, strange though it sounds.

Beware of scams as encountered by this Australian who posted on a Facebook page on Aussie Maine Coon breeders:

The extreme Maine Coon face

-
Image
This is an example of extreme breeding. This is a Maine Coon but this cat is an extreme and rare example of this breed. This is not the way they look normally. This face is almost like an aggressive robot with the piercing eyes and the huge muzzle.  Or like a lion's head. The head looks enormous and very heavy. It looks unreal. But it also looks very impressive.  And purchasers like impressive-looking domestic cats. But this not the face of a Maine Coon that wins cat show competitions as it does not fit the breed standard as accurately as the more moderate winners (see below).  In fact, the CFA standard is clear in that the cat should have a balanced appearance although this cat was not bred under the CFA breed standard as I understand it (see below).  Click here for more on the kind of MC which wins at shows . Maine Coon selectively breed to have an extreme face. Image in the public domain. And the Maine Coon is meant to be a large cat, the largest domestic cat breed and there

Eerie picture of a Maine Coon sitting like a human on a chest of drawers

Image
This is a slightly scary picture according to those who've seen it. One social media user said it was the devil and "If I walked into a room and saw that, I would assume some shit is about to go down". There is a ghostly stillness and sinister feeling about the image. 'Eerie' is a better description. This attractive cat appears to be completely at ease and comfortable sitting on top of a chest of bedroom drawers. The lighting from below (deliberate?) enhances the eerie effect. It seems possible that this is a photo-edited image but if so, it has been done with great skill. However, I don't think this is Photoshopped. Rethink: to be honest, the more I look at the picture, the more I feel that this is a photo-edited image. It is just too unnatural to be real. Although some domestic cats get themselves into some very strange positions. Maine Coon calmly sitting just like a human on a chest of drawers. Picture source unclear.

Black smoke Maine Coon Richie with a black face and diamond eyes

Black smoke Maine Coon Richie with a black face and diamond eyes. Photo: Instagram. OMG, this is a Maine Coon with an amazing face. His full name is "Richie du Mont d’Even". I think he has a black smoke coat which has created this black face with the assistance of other genes (polygenetic influence?) and ears with piercing, diamond eyes. This is a very special cat. Richie looked very interesting but relatively plain as a kitten. Image: Instagram. His paws are balls of fluff. He has a mane that goes over his head like a halo. He's angelic and other-worldly. The lynx tips on the end of his ears are smoky grey which makes them stand out. They are a bit like the opposite to the black lynx tips of the wild caracal.  He lives in France with his human: Adriana Piraino. He was born on 7th November 2020. He is still very young. They say Maine Coons reach adulthood at around the age of 4. He is going to be enormous as well. Richie with Adriana. Photo: Instagram Richie was bred b
