Finding Maine Coon Kittens In Wisconsin
Finding a reputable breeder can be difficult, especially in the more remote parts of the United States. Still, there are plenty of breeders to choose from in Wisconsin as you are about to discover.
DISCLAIMER: ‘Maine Coon Central’ Does Not Endorse any of the breeders listed on this page. Breeder information has been sourced from TICA, CFA, and breeder websites.
Please be aware that there are many pet sales scams in operation, particularly when it comes to the expensive Maine Coon cat breed. If a breeder requests a large payment upfront for kittens, please either avoid or proceed with great caution. Potential owners must do adequate research about the catteries and/or breeders before handing over any monies.
Finding Maine Coon Kittens In Wisconsin
When searching for a Maine Coon, you should always ensure you are sourcing from a reputable breeder that is registered with a governing cat body, such as CFA or TICA. While a bit rare, you can also find Maine Coons at Maine Coon rescue centers or even local adoption centers.
The Maine Coon is a mysterious cat breed originating in the state of Maine. Over time these cats became popular for their hunting skills, but they are also incredibly popular for their stunning appearance and social personality.
If you are looking to bring home a Maine Coon, here are some of the places you can look:
1. Registered Breeders
Registered breeders have been formally registered by a governing cat body, such as:
- TICA
- CFA
These breeders provide documentation that proves your Maine Coon is purebred. They also do genetic screening to ensure that their breeding cats are free of common Maine Coon health problems, such as:
Registered breeders can be quite expensive, but this is because they put a lot of time and money into making sure each Maine Coon kitten is healthy and cared for.
2. Backyard Breeders
These breeders may seem tempting to use at first since they often sell much cheaper Maine Coon kittens than registered breeders. They are mostly motivated by profit though, and often do not provide adequate housing or health care for their kittens.
Many of these breeders also pass off Maine Coon mixes or even domestic longhairs as purebred Maine Coons, so do not be fooled!
It is not recommended to source a Maine Coon kitten from a backyard breeder, as there is no guarantee you are purchasing a healthy kitten that has been raised ethically.
If you choose not to heed this advice, make sure you read the following guides which help novice purchasers determine if they are looking at a Maine Coon kitten, or not:

How To Identify A Maine Coon Kitten
3. Online Groups
Another option for purchasing a Maine Coon kitten is online e.g. Facebook groups.
Some owners might end up with a surprise litter of Maine Coon kittens and need to find homes for them quickly, so it is worth keeping an eye out for this.
In sad cases, some owners are no longer able to care for their Maine Coon cat or kitten and need to rehome it. These kittens and cats deserve a second chance and loving homes.
It can take a lot of time and patience to scour these online sites and groups.
However, if you are lucky, you might end up with a Maine Coon for far less than you would have had to spend had you purchased a kitten from a registered Maine Coon breeder.
4. Adoption Centers
While most cats at shelters are domestic shorthairs and longhairs (or, in other words, not a specific cat breed), it is still possible to find purebred or mixed-breed Maine Coons here.
It is considerably more cost-effective to buy a Maine Coon kitten from an adoption center, is far cheaper than purchasing from a Maine Coon breeder, and also covers the following costs:
- Vaccination
- Microchipping
- Spaying
- Neutering
Maine Coons don’t show up at adoption centers very often, and the ones that do are usually the first to be adopted. Still, with enough time and patience, you may be able to find the Maine Coon of your dreams at an adoption center.
5. Maine Coon Rescues
Rescue organizations specialize in purebred or mixed Maine Coon cats and kittens. However, these organizations are few and far between and do not have many cats available.
Buying a kitten from a Maine Coon rescue center will be far cheaper than purchasing via a registered Maine Coon breeder.
