About Us:
Welcome to MaineVu Maine Coons! Thank you for your appreciation of the amazing Maine Coon Breed and thank you for your interest in a MaineVu Maine Coon Kitten.
We are Philip and Marjorie Berger, located in Cartersville, GA. We are an internationally recognized Maine Coon Cattery, having several of our kittens and their off spring placed in Canada, China and France. We are simply a hobby, not a business. The love of these cats and our efforts to advance the breed represent a passion. We are responsible breeders, not "Back Yard Breeders."
We specialize in the possible colors and patterns for Males: Black Silver, Black Smoke, Solid Black, Brown, Red Smoke and Red Silver, Classic and Ticked Patterns.
For Females: Black Silver, Black Smoke, Solid Black, Brown Classic and Ticked patterns Female Torbies and Classic Tabby.
Some kittens will have white paws and white bibs.
We are registered with The International Cat Association (TICA) and The Cat Fanciers Association (CFA),
We have successfully shown our kittens in CFA (Cat Fanciers Association) and The International Cat Association (TICA) to Grand Champions, Supreme Grand Champions, Regional Winners, International Winners and Lifetime Achievement Winners, and to Grand Premier in The Cat Fanciers Association, (CFA).
We began our breeding program in 2008.
GOAL: To produce healthy, beautiful, kittens bred to the Maine Coon standards of TICA and CFA. We strive to produce loving companions for your home with the fabulous temperament that Maine Coons are famous for.
OUR MALES: Paleeni Doctor Wu of MaineVu and MTNest Jack Sparrow of MaineVu resides with us in our bedroom suite.
OUR FEMALES: MaineVu Rikki Don't Lose That Number, MaineVu Simone, MaineVu Suzy Q, MaineVu Katy Lied, MaineVu Proud Mary and our up and coming females MaineVu Foxy Lady and MaineVu White Rabbit, have the freedom of our house, except when they are with a litter.
OUR RETIRED NEUTERED MALES: MaineVu Oliver and MTNest Sterling Twilight of MaineVu have the run of the house.
HEALTH HISTORY OF OUR CATS:
We are NEGATIVE for the Feline Leukemia Virus (FeLV) and the Feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV). All of our cats are DNA NEGATIVE for (HCM), Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy, (PK Deficiency) Pyruvate Kinase, (SMA) Spinal Muscular Atrophy and (PKD) Polycystic Kidney Disease via UC Davis Laboratories and Wisdom Panel DNA findings.
Our cats receive a Color Doppler Echo cardiogram from a board certified practicing veterinary cardiologist for their hearts yearly. Copies of heart scans will be in your folder.
As new methods of testing become available, they will be incorporated into our breeding program. No breeder can guarantee that a cat will not develop heart disease, but we are comfortable knowing that our cats have normal healthy hearts.
CONTRACT PROVISIONS: Our contract stipulates that all of our kittens are indoor only, never declawed and must be spayed or neutered at 6-8 months of age. A range of dates is suggested in your contract. All of our kittens leave us for their new homes when they are 13 weeks old.

We introduce them to ADULT CAT FOOD; Purina One Chicken dry food, and Purina ProPlan, Friskies, Fancy Feast, Wellness, and Science Diet wet food when they are 8 weeks old.
Maine Coons require a lot of water. We have several bowls of cold water throughout the house. Wet food should be given to your cats twice a day, 1/2 can in the morning 1/2 can in the evening. Dry food can be left out over night and replenished the next morning.
STARTER KITTEN STARTER KITS:

All of our kittens are litter trained and introduced to kitten food when they are 5 weeks old. They are introduced to adult food when they are 8 weeks old. Copies of parents DNA results and of parents heart ultrasounds and a pedigree will be included with your final contract. A handbook with our veterinarian's contact information, our feeding schedule, and which litter we use, is sent to all kitten buyers. Samples of the dry and canned food that the kitten has been eating are given to kitten buyers when they come to pick up their kitten.
PICK UP INFORMATION:
We do not ship our cats, they must be picked up from our home, unless other arrangements have been made. Please bring a carrier with you when you come to pick up your kitten.

BEFORE YOU ADOPT- THINGS TO CONSIDER:
THE PARENTS:
Does the website show full names of the parents and registered cattery name? Do they have information on a public site that is variable? Are there photos of their cats including a link for their pedigree? Does the website feature a "lock?" Have the cats been genetically tested for HCM, and PK Deficiency? Is there verification of all genetic tests done?
THE SCAMMERS:
The scammers are out and ready to take your money. Why? Because there are always families that are looking for that special kitten. They will communicate with you via text and email and very rarely on phone call. They will promise you a beautiful Maine Coon kitten, and request payment via Wells Fargo. Unfortunately, the kitten you've just sent payment for may not exist.
THE BREEDER:
When selecting a breeder make sure that they are legitimate reputable breeders. If you see a site saying they have "kittens available, Buy Now!" Be careful. If they show a photo of a kitten that is available and under 12 weeks old, be careful.
Reputable Breeders do not let kittens leave for their new homes until they are 12-14 weeks old and will never say Buy Now. All kittens/Cats should be healthy and free of parasites and will be micro chipped.
Does the breeder have a home that welcomes new owners to visit their kittens and the parents? Have a home that is clean. Should care that their kittens will be placed only in approved homes and given a lifetime of love? Fed high quality food and receive regular vet care. Provide you with a proper pedigree and TICA registration papers (once the kittens have been neutered/spayed.) Provide "starter food kits" and a list of all of the food that the kitten had been eating.
We work exclusively with ABScatz MAINE COONS, LAKEVIEW COONS, MTNEST MAINE COONS and PALEENI MAINE COONS in the United States and MADININA MAINE COONS in France and MACAWI MOSI in Holland .
BREEDING PLANS: none at the present time.
