Cindy Rogers and Wayne Wiekhorst, owners of the Suncoon Maine Coon breeding organization, are Fast Eddie’s breeders and owners.
A purebred Maine Coon, Fast Eddie was born at Suncoon in sunny Arizona, where he still resides.

Viewer @itsmeyourdad_ noted his completely relaxed state, saying, “I love how he just immediately goes to loafing.”
Other viewers of this video were clearly impressed by his magnificent form.
User @ninacarter1992 commented, “Ma’am that is a lion,” and @heatheris0nfire noted, “Looks like a Thundercat.”
Size
As far as Maine Coon sizes go, Fast Eddie is at the larger end of the spectrum.
It is clear from his stature that he has the typical muscular build and long body of a healthy Maine Coon.
Interestingly, Fast Eddie won his first show in 2018 at the age of one and a half.
Most Maine Coons are not fully grown until they reach between 3 to 5 years old.
Weight
This mighty Maine Coon weighs an impressive 25 pounds.
As mentioned, this breed ranges in weight from 8-25 pounds, so Fast Eddie is at the highest end of the spectrum.
As a male, he is naturally inclined to weigh in on the heavier end of the Maine Coon weight range. This is because male Maine Coon weight ranges from 15 – 25 lbs.
