Maine Coons originally come from Maine (United States) and are a long-haired breed of cat adapted to a colder climate. They have long hair to protect them from the cold, and fluff between their toes and under their feet to prevent them from getting stuck to snow or ice.

Maine Coons have adapted to be very agile, slender cats, most likely to enter burrows and catch rodents hiding from the cold.

When they sleep they wrap their long, fluffy tails around them, which not only keeps them warm but also protects their sensitive nose and mouth from wind and cold.
