Our Story

Maine Coon Central (MCC) didn’t just spring up overnight. It’s the culmination of a lifelong love affair with Maine Coon cats and a burning desire to share that passion with the world.

Katrina Stewardson’s fascination with Maine Coon cats ignited over a decade ago when she welcomed her first feline friend, Pippin, into her home. From that moment, her life was forever entwined with these magnificent creatures!

Pippin wasn’t just a pet; he was a gateway to a world of discovery, sparking Katrina’s insatiable curiosity about the Maine Coon breed.

As Katrina’s furry family grew to include Bali and Mika, her understanding of Maine Coons deepened. Each cat brought its own unique personality and quirks, and inspired her to create a website dedicated to cats!

Driven by a desire to educate and empower others, Katrina envisioned a platform where Maine Coon enthusiasts could find reliable information, support, and camaraderie.

Thus, Maine Coon Central was born – a digital sanctuary for feline aficionados seeking knowledge and community.

From humble beginnings, MCC has flourished into a hub of expertise, authority, and trustworthiness, attracting a diverse audience of cat lovers from every corner of the globe.

At MCC, we share stories, insights, and a deep-rooted love for Maine Coons. Our mission is simple yet profound: to ensure these majestic cats receive the quality of life they deserve.

Welcome to Maine Coon Central, where every cat has a story, and every story matters.
