    Molly is a tabby Maine Coon Cat, she is affectionate and gentle, we
    are thinking of showing her; Does anyone have any information on her
    breed I have been looking in books etc. and have not come up with much.
    One source states that Coon cats are wild, that they have only one
    litter a year, believe me she is not wild and is an indoor kitty. Any
    information will be appreciated.      
    
    
    
    
                                             Thanks in advance,
    
                                                       Joanne

|     Joanne - Will you be showing Molly as an altered purebred (meaning you
    have a pedigree) or as an "apparent" purebred??  I think you should
    go to some catshows and talk to the Maine Coon breeders there.
    
    We will be more than happy to help you with showing.  In fact, there's
    a show in Salem Mass on 6/30-7/1.  Contact me if you want entry info.
    Hope to see you there.

|     There are a number of notes in the conference about Main Coons; You
    can find them by entering SHOW KEY/FULL MAINE_COON at the notes prompt.

|     Just so you know, any breed of cat is capable of having more than
    one litter of kittens a year.  Don't rely on this information for
    planning your cats "parenthood".  If allowed free access to a male,
    she could easily have 6 litters a year!!
