Have you been searching for “Maine Coon Kittens Near Me” in Google? Are you finding what you’re looking for? Beginning your search for a Maine Coon kitten can be a daunting experience. If you’re brand new to the process of getting a kitten from a breeder, then keep reading.
There are nearly 200 Maine Coon Catteries from the United States of America listed on The International Cat Association website. They’re located in practically every state or one very close to you.
When doing your search, you’re likely to find cattery websites, referral websites, and even the TICA website, since they have very high authority in Google for Information about Pedigree Cats.
TICA has an entire section dedicated to cattery directories for every breed that is recognized in their association. While there are numerous more catteries than those that are shown in the directory, the ones that you do see have paid to have their catteries listed on the website.
PSA: About TICA Cattery Listings
Having a listing on the TICA website is indicative only that the breeder is registered as a cattery with TICA. It doesn’t provide any validation as to the practices or ethics. Continue to do your research on any breeder that you’re considering getting a Maine Coon Kitten from until you feel comfortable with your choice.
There are catteries that go one step further and earn their Outstanding Cattery Award from TICA. these catteries have gone through an extensive evaluation and inspection by a licensed veterinarian, and have earned the reward of being outstanding for their husbandry and cattery management.
