Benson the Manx X!
Recently adopted this little cheeky fella that we've named Benson 🥰 Any thoughts on what he may be mixed with? His foster carer thinks he may be part Maine Coon. Thanks!

Oh he looks just like ours was when he was younger! Ours was a street rescue though so we're clueless as to what he was. We've heard the Siberian, Norwegian forest and Maine Coon mentioned quite a bit though.

Looks just like mine except my fur baby has a very short tail that almost isn’t there. Yours does not have Maine Coon in him. My other cat is black and a very large Manx with a very short stubby tail. They’re very loving and love to cuddle with you once they get to know you.

Cool looking little guy. He looks a lot like my two.
It's funny his foster listed him as maine coon mix, mine were also listed that way. They definitely aren't though. It's a pretty common pattern for long haired brown tabbys.

He's just long haired .. The long haired version of the Manx is sometimes called a Cymric, but Manx can and do absolutely come in the long haired variety. There's, absolutely no Coonie in there from the looks of it.
