Feeding a Maine Coon: the honest notes

🐾

Maine Coons mature unusually slowly — many keep growing until 4–5 years old. Don't rush to switch to adult portions.

🐾

They're big, but size ≠ fat: a 9 kg male can be perfectly lean while a 6 kg one is overweight. Track weight trends, not single numbers.

🐾

Their tufted paws and thick coat hide body changes — monthly hands-on rib checks are essential.

These are breed tendencies, not a prescription. For the actual amount, the calculator uses your pet's real body weight and life stage — the same veterinary formula vets use.
