Hi all,

Wondering if anyone here can help me identify Bruce.  His foster mom told me he's a Maine Coon mix, so I'm just wondering what his other half might be? 

Physical features:

-1 year old, approx. 8.5 lbs

-Markings are marbled

-Eyes are green

-Entire midline is white

-Paw pads are pink

-Nose is pink

-Classic "M" marking on forehead

-Tail is thin, not fluffy/bushy like a purebred Maine Coon

Personality traits:

-Bush dweller (he has a tower that he naps in, but he prefers to stay close to the ground)

-Very vocal/talkative

-Extremely affectionate, will snuggle up with me in bed/rest by my side

-Prefers toys with feathers

Here's a full-body pic of Bruce:


Thanks for the help!

What a handsome boy ;)

I was trying to work out his color. At first I thought he was a brown classic tabby but his tabby marking don't seem black enough for him to be a brown tabby - although that could just be the lighting on the photo.

I think he could actually be a blue classic tabby and white.

He does have a maine coon look about him - his ears, eyes and face shape. :D
I would think he is most likely a maine coon mixed with a domestic ;)

Beautiful boy and I love his green/yellow eyes :rbheart:

Thank you very much!  He's definitely a blue tabby, as his stripes range from dark charcoal gray to light blue-gray.
