Maine Coon Kittens' 'Peach Cobbler' Coloring Couldn't Be More Stunning

With so many pretty kitties in the world, it takes something really special to be compared to a work of art. One Maine Coon mom just birthed the sweetest, most stunning litter of kittens, and they're all some color variation of peach cobbler you have to see!

The litter of 10 (yes, TEN!) kittens has fierce-looking parents to come out in these beautiful shades of peach. They gradually "run out of ink," fading closer to a very light orange-almost white-that makes them look like a breathtaking sunset when combined. Mama, who's also a real beauty queen, sure is proud of her new brood, and we can't blame her-they're all perfect in their own way!

This isn't the first ginger litter from @greekgardenmainecoons with these colors. Several other litters also came out with an "orange sampler pack," and we couldn't dare pick a favorite from the crew or mini-mes! Whatever age and size the kittens are, we're here for it!

How Many Different Maine Coon Colors Are There?

Maine Coons come in more than 80 recognized colors and pattern combos, but the base colors are mostly black and red. The rest are genetic and made through the dilution of blue and cream and the inclusion of white.

These cuties can be born with anything from solid all-black, snow-white, and complex silver smoke palettes to Tabby patterns (brown Tabby is the most common), which can be ticked, classic, or mackerel.

The only exception to Maine Coon kittens not recognized by The Cat Fanciers' Association includes pointed color patterns (Siamese, etc.), lavender, and chocolate babies. Also, any of them can have white patches, making them extra unique!

Here's a more comprehensive list of Maine Coon color variations:

  • Solid colors come in white, black, red, blue, and cream.
  • Tabby kitties can be brown, silver, red, blue, cream, and classic varieties.
  • Tortoiseshell and Torbies (Tortoiseshell Tabby) are black or blue, but can have patches of cream/red
  • Smoke kittens have blue, black, and shaded variants.

It doesn't matter to me what color any kitten comes in, but these peach cobbler, pumpkin, tangerine-tinted kitties are truly a sight to behold!
