The next step is to take the kitten to your local veterinary practice, to check for a microchip that identifies who owns the kitten, and where they live. Whilst Maine Coon organizations do not run a Maine Coon adoption service themselves, they may be able to help you find a Maine Coon kitten for free. Whilst this might be their normal business model, it is not completely out of the question to find a cattery that may be looking after a rescued Maine Coon kitten. Don’t be like the rest, assuming that catteries are only interested in selling their kittens.
Work slowly to gain the trust of this loveable and affectionate cat breed. Check the kitten for a collar as it will likely detail who the kitten’s owners are. Thank you for choosing Animal Welfare Society as a place to adopt a pet! We regularly have adults cats of all ages in our Adoption Center. Remember that kittens tend to be adopted very quickly, so if you do not see any, please check back again soon.
