Maine Coon Cat Size

Maine coon vs normal cat size.

Maine coon cat size. The maine coon is the largest breed of domestic cat. In short while an average cat is 9 to 10 inches in height a maine coon average height is around 10 to 16 inches in height. That s quite a size difference. One maine coon cat named stewie made it into the 2010 guinness world records achieving the title for the longest cat of his breed.

While females will range 11 20lbs 5 9kg on average. According to the records his tail alone measured a gigantic 16 inches. The maine coon size varies immensely but it is generally larger than a normal cat. The height of adults can vary between 10 and 16 in 25 and 41 cm and they can reach a length of up to 38 in 97 cm including the tail which can reach a length of 14 in 36 cm and is long tapering and heavily furred almost.

On average males weigh from 13 to 18 lb 5 9 to 8 2 kg with females weighing from 8 to 12 lb 3 6 to 5 4 kg. Males at 11 25 lbs 5 11 5 kgs and females at 8 20lbs 3 75 9kgs but this is a rough estimate. Males are generally larger than female maine coon cats. He measured an incredible 48 5 inches 123 19 cm which is calculated by measuring from the tip of a cats nose to the tip of their tail.

A large maine coon can be more than twice the size of a normal cat but some can be a couple of pounds smaller. The males on average can weigh from 15 25lbs 6 8 11 34kg. I ve even heard of one male tipping the scales at 30 lbs 13 5 kgs but this was either grossly exaggerated or that cat was grossly overweight.
