GCCF Maine Coon - Correct Type and Faults

Here is a document, written for judges and breeders, which many people have found helpful when they want to learn more about the breed or are wondering whether their cat is show quality. It goes through what the Maine Coon should look like (known as "type") and faults to look out for. It is a combination of photos and text, we hope that anyone interested in learning more about the Maine Coon will find it very useful.
Remember, if you are unsure about something, then don't hesitate to ask. Feel free to contact any of the committee if you are looking for help or advice on any subject.
