Meet Our Gentle Giant
Big in Size, Sweet in Nature
Emilien Akoni—affectionately called AK—is our beautiful cream silver European Maine Coon sire from Russia.
When AK first joined us, he was already an impressive 22 pounds at only one year old. He has now matured to approximately 24 pounds, growing into the substantial male we expected from his impressive paternal line.
AK is wonderfully sweet, gentle, and easygoing. His transition from Russia into our home and cattery went smoothly, and he quickly became comfortable with his new surroundings and his ladies.

A Gentle, Easygoing Presence
AK's calm temperament is as important to us as his size and beautiful cream silver coat.
AK has a huge personality to match his size, but his manner is gentle and affectionate. He is patient, sweet with the females in our program, and brings a relaxed confidence to the cattery.
He adjusted beautifully after arriving from Russia and quickly learned the routines, people, and rhythms of his new home. His calm disposition and easygoing nature have made him a pleasure to live with.
His kittens are often confident, affectionate, and people-oriented, with the substantial structure and beautiful expression we hoped he would contribute.
