Do you happen to have more photos of her? It would be easier to tell if you did! That is a really large kitty though. I thought my 17 pound boys were big!

I'm honestly not sure.. Strangely enough, besides her coat colour, she reminds me of a ragdoll in the face and with her build and fur type. She could very well have Maine Coon in her though, or she could just be a domestic longhair who happens to be very big. Does she like water? Is she docile? Does she chatter or trill?
I have two cats that are half Maine Coon brothers and your Peaches sort of looks like one of them in the face.
This is Duncan ^^

Welcome to TCS.

Belly rubs:)

I'm just guessing, but she might have a Ragamuffin ancestor (a very close cousin of the Ragdoll, but with many more coat patterns and eye colors).

Gorgeous cat!.

thank you I saved her life I found her in Atlantic City on the side of the road in a box with a broken glass with no water no food "infested" with fleas she was just 6/7 months old I cleaned her up took her to the vet got her fixed and it seems she know I saved her life [emoji]10084[/emoji]️ she follows me everywhere I can pick her up and for some reason she likes laying on my lap upside down and she just looks around lol she doesn't mind water when I gave her the flea treatments she just sat there no fight and seemed to enjoy it my other car flipped out! she likes our family but when friends come over she hides or hisses and is not nice but if I go and console her she is ok she always talks back like she is saying "raaaaaw" when I talk to her and sometimes it's drawn out sometimes shorter and when she purrs her mouth is open partially and she breathes so heavy I thought it was because she is so big lol no matter what she is I love her and I know she loves me that's what matters

This is my 8 1/2 year old Maine Coon, he's red also, no white. Maine Coons usually have sort of a "wild" look to their faces, many have tufts at their ear tips.


The fur should be shorter across the shoulders and haunches, longer on the body, with big pantaloons, a big ruff, fluffy tail which is carried low, sometimes dragging on the ground.
