LillyBell Maine Coons - Maine Coon Cat Breeder - Toowoomba, QLD
Maine Coon Cat Breeder - Australia
I am a small home breeder of the very beautiful Maine Coon breed. I love them so much and want to give others the opportunity to experience the joy of owning and loving them as well.
All of my cats are indoor cats, and not only breeders, but part of my family as pets. Kittens are born in the kitten nursery and stay with their Mum until 12 weeks, at which time they are ready to go their new owners. All cats will be desexed, wormed, vaccinated, and microchipped before they leave. I will supply pedigree papers.
