And we have put together the 10 cutest pictures of these gentle giants.

#1. A snow tiger- mini version.

#2. What do we destroy next?

What makes them even more cute is the fact that they are the size of a regular kitten when small. It is when they grow up that the magic happens and they become majestic giants.

#3. A whole litter of 9-week-old Maine Coon kittens waiting for their turn with the vet.

#4. They can weigh up to 8.2kg when they are fully grown and can reach a length of 120cm, and that is enormous in comparison with a house cat.

#5. Here is a bundle of cuteness.

#6. They are also known as the ‘dogs of the cat world,’ not only because of their size but also because of their loyalty. In fact, they are very loyal to their owners and can be wary of strangers in the house.

#7. And would you believe it if we told you that one looked like this when it was a kitten?

#8. I bet she poses better than many of us.

#9. Having one of these cats at home means that there will be responsibilities. But believe me, it will be worth it.

#10. Here is a ginger kitty!
