MARBLE CITY MAINE COONS
RESOURCES
Welcome to our Maine Coon cat resource page! Here, you’ll discover valuable information and resources tailored specifically for this remarkable breed. We are dedicated to continually enhancing this page as we proudly share our passion for Maine Coons and the immense joy they bring into our lives.
Maine Coon Cat Nation has been online for more than a decade, but it's always been more than a website. It's a growing collection of stories, advice, authentic experiences, and beautiful cats - all centered on one breed we never get tired of talking about.
This site is run by, Carrie Profenno - longtime cat person, Maine Coon owner, and the one behind the scenes organizing and writing everything you see here.
While I'm a bit on the private side (and you won't find a big personal story here), I've spent years building a resource that reflects what people really want to know about this amazing breed.
Every page you visit on MCCN is built with care, shaped by experience, and often supported by our readers - through stories, quotes, and photos that reflect the everyday joy (and chaos) of life with a Maine Coon.
Whether you'ree here to research, smile, or see if your cat is "part Coonie," you're in the right place. I'm glad you found us.
Maine Coon Rescue is a nationwide 501c3 non-profit organization dedicated to rescuing Maine Coon and Maine Coon mix cats. We are a network of volunteers who share one love: our beloved Maine Coons. We assist in assuring that these cats are placed in carefully screened forever homes where they will spend the rest of their lives being spoiled as they deserve.
Maine Coon Haven Rescue was founded in the spring of 2004 and has grown to be one of the largest and most respected animal welfare groups in the USA. We are a non-profit, volunteer-run organization devoted to finding loving new homes for unwanted, homeless cats and kittens. Maine Coon Haven Rescue volunteers place over 300 Maine Coons into homes every year. Since we began, we have rescued and placed over 7000 cats (and counting!) into loving homes.
