      @@evelyntodd9946 I did wonder. I've had the privilege of a half-Maine Coon "guest" overnight when I used to help with rescue. Turned out his owners were on holiday and neighbours were feeding him (he was an indoor cat). He escaped, followed a lady home who had two Maine Coons who were not impressed by this newcomer. I collected him and took him home overnight until his owners could be contacted as he was microchipped. He was huge but what a laid-back, gentle cat he was. He was reunited next day to very relieved carers. I took a photograph of him. My own cats weren't bothered by him at all. Lovely cat.

    Love Maine Coons but your opening statement about size is not correct, you stated they get up to 20 lbs, I’ve had 2 males, my first reached 22 lbs and my current one is just over 26 lbs and almost done growing. They reach full size and stop growing after 4-5 years old, he’s almost 4 years.

      I was showing my Sphynx cats at a show, and there was the biggest Maine Coon neuter there that I had ever seen. He was a gorgeous brown classic tabby. I started talking with his owner, and found out that he was 18 inches at the shoulder, 40 inches long, and weighed nearly 30 pounds. He was only 2 years old. My male Sphynx weighed 16 pounds, and was big himself, but he looked like a little kitten next to this big boy. Both were grand champions. They had a picture taken together by the show photographer, which I have a copy of. This was back in the mid 90s. (Jan Griffiths).

      No.
      Larger warm blooded animals lose less heat.
      This is because they have more mass per inch of skin.
      They also tend to have shorter limbs.
      It isn't about total skin surface
      But the ratio of skin surface to body mass.
      Smaller animals have more skin in relationship to the mass of their skin.
      This is why we had magafauna like wooly mammoths during the last glacial period with the largest of the megafauna living in Northern areas.
      Conversely,
      Cold blooded animals do get Smaller in cols climates because they gain heat threw their skin.
      The more skin in relation to mass they have the faster they warm up.
      This is why the bigger reptiles are from hotter climates.
