I didn't know this:

Maine Coon. The official state cat of Maine is -- you guessed it -- the Maine Coon. This plus-size cat, adorned with a beautiful neck ruff, dainty britches, tufted feet that resemble snowshoes and a big, bushy tail that he can wrap around himself when he naps is likely the oldest cat breed native to America.

Nor this:

If you want a cat the size and temperament of a small dog -- one that even wags its tail with excitement every time you get home -- consider a Maine Coon. It's "the gentle giant of domestic cats," says Hutcherson.

Maine Coons can grow to up to 25 pounds. The breed was developed from longhair tabby barn cats in the state of Maine, Hutcherson says. The longest cat in the world is a Maine Coon.

Expect to pay between $1,500 and $4,000 for a kitten. Since cats are double the size of the average domestic cat, expect to pay a minimum of $200 annually to feed them -- but it can be twice that or more for higher-end food.

If you don't want to do your own grooming, expect to pay around $320 for quarterly bathing, brushing and nail clipping. Total yearly maintenance, including food and a few toys and excluding grooming servives: $980.

I thought the Tiger was?
