The answer is Yes, Maine Coon cats are known for being very cuddly and affectionate towards their owners. While they are large and muscular cats, they have a gentle and friendly personality that makes them a popular choice for families and cat lovers.

Maine Coons are often described as "gentle giants," and enjoy spending time with their owners, whether that's sitting on their lap, snuggling up in bed, or following them around the house. They are social cats that thrive on human interaction, and are known for being very loyal and devoted to their families.

While each cat has its own unique personality, Maine Coons are generally very affectionate and love to be petted, cuddled, and played with. They are often described as being "dog-like" in their behavior, and may even follow their owners from room to room like a loyal canine companion.

I have two Maine Coons at home and they are both cuddly but differently. While my female will always sleep with me every night and ask for cuddles many times throughout the day, my male, enjoy his time alone and will never come and ask for cuddles. But one impressive thing about him is that, whenever I am alone at home or sick, he will ALWAYS come and sleep with me all the time and cuddle me. It is like he feels that I am lonely or unwell and want to comfort me during those times.

In short, if you're looking for a cat that is both big and cuddly, a Maine Coon kitten could be a great choice for you. However, it's important to remember that every cat is different, and that the personality and behaviour of your cat will depend on a variety of factors, including their genetics, upbringing, and individual temperament.
