#6. The record-holder for longest cat was Stewie, a Maine Coon who measured four feet from his nose to the tip of his tail.
#7. Maine Coon’s are thought to be one of North America’s oldest natural breeds, from working farm cats. By “working”, they must mean driving tractors, building walls, etc.
#8. Another job for Maine Coons could be celebrity lion lookalikes. Mufasa, is that you?
#10. They also come in handy if you want to work out but can’t make the gym.
