This is Samson, a 28 lbs (13kg) Maine Coon cat that resides in NYC and at 4 feet in length is just as big as your average bobcat and easily the biggest Maine Coon in NYC. The current Guinness World record holder passed away in 2013 and measured an impressive 4.04 feet which means Samson may even be the biggest of his kind in the world!.
According to his owner Jonathan Zurbel, Samson is a tough cat but not afraid to show his more loving side and “fits the term gentle giant very well.” Zurbel says that despite his size Samson isn’t overweight but “strong Husky sturdy cat,” something that his breed is known for. “He waits by my (bedroom) door and comes in first thing in the morning to sit on my belly. He is very kind and sweet and a very well behaved cat. He is a dream cat.”
