" ESSO "
This jewel is only 18 months old and is one of our newer addition from an International Show Champion father AND mother from St Petersburg Russia. He has since been
re-registered here with CFA and TICA. He is a classic brown marble tabby with fabulous markings and no white. He also has lime green eyes which we hope he passes onto to his offspring. He is not even close to being mature and has already proven himself quite the stud cat by siring 2 of our early summer litters from 2019. When he gets a little older we will see how he does in the US show ring, but believe he will do quite well. His father was tops in his class in his country and we feel this handsome guy will do the same. His father, at 8 years of age, weighed in at 29 pounds and this beauty should top that. He is massively big boned and already hitting 23 pounds. And, he is sooooooo gentle and sweet natured and loves nothing more than being close by you at all times or right in your lap. He does this cute little thing to you in the mornings where he likes to place his paw on your cheek while you are still asleep and gently cooo at you until you wake up. When he was younger he would get in the middle of your chest and do this, ugh. As he got bigger and heavier, we broke him of that, thank God. He is an absolute treasure and joy to be around, and to have around, and
is the epitome of what a quality Maine Coon should look like.

" ENRO "
This exceedingly handsome guy is twin brother to Esso above with the exact same International Champion father AND mother as Esso (same parents, same litter). He is only 18 months old and is a classic brown marble tabby with magnificent marbling and huuuuuge ear tufts and like his brother Esso, has lime green eyes. He should reach 30 pounds by the time he reaches maturity at 6 years just like his almost 30 pound father. Several of our Spring 2020 litters are sired by him, and his brown marbling is very evident in the coats of his babies :) His temperament is quite different in that his is more needy and little boyish. He would prefer to be with his mommie (me) then with the other cats. As he grew he was always the one snuggled in bed with me or up on my pillow. He is the much more quieter of the two but not at all timid. When push comes to shove he is up front ready to do battle like when we had a visit from that neighborhood bear last year. He was right at his pen door ready to wup that bears butt and,
that was a 600 pound bear.

" THOR "
This gorgeous guy is one of our newer acquisitions from the Ukraine
and will be re-registered here with CFA and TICA. He is an all blue beauty with a white tuxedo and white feet and, he is true blue, which is mouse grey. He will be teamed with Harisu and Mouse at some point this year and should produce some very distinct all blue, blue smoke and black smoke offspring. At his current age of 8 months he has already topped out at 10 pounds so, he's gonna be a bigun :) - lol.
And, he has that typical Maine Coon personality of just downright
SWEET SWEET SWEET.

" TAO "
RETIRED
Our gorgeous Tao is just 4 years old and has been our primary stud male until the introduction of Esso and Enro above. Tao was a bit upset with having to share all the girls with Esso and Enro but has since excepted them and they have all become fast friends as long as they're housed in separate pens, lol. This beautiful creature is from a Show Champion father and mother from the Ukraine but has since been
re-registered here with CFA and TICA. Tao is a biiiiiig boy and massively big boned and will probably top the scale at over 30 pounds when mature. He is such a loving gentle giant but also fierce when protecting his girls. We had a visit from a neighborhood bear last Fall (we live on 10 acres out in the country) and he went ape making noises I have never heard him make before until that bear left.
He is a beautiful classic black marble tabby with white.

We measured and weighed Tao today (4/10/20) and he is 27 inches from his nose to where his tail meets his rump (please note that 27 inches DOES NOT INCLUDE the length of his tail). He is also 27 pounds and at only 4 years of age, he should top 30 pounds when fully mature and they are not fully mature until the age of 6. Note, the Coke can is 2 1/2 inches wide. He's gonna be
a biiiiig boy.
a biiiiig boy.

" CHARLIE "
This very handsome guy is our Charlie. He is black smoke with white accents with beautiful golden eyes. He is the son of our Tori and Tao and was born the Fall of 2018. He has become very instrumental in our breeding program because he produces ONLY BLACK and BLUE SMOKE babies. At some point this year he will be bred to our Harisu and a number of our other ladies. He is a very laid back sort of fella and extremely affectionate. He is also highly intelligent. These pictures were taken when he was only 3 months old and, just like his father Tao, he's gonna be a biiiiig boy :) New pics to be posted as soon as he gets through with his spring molt, lol.
