Maine Coon cats exhibit diverse coat colors and patterns, encompassing solids like black, white, and cream, alongside various tabby patterns such as classic, mackerel, and ticked tabby. They may also display bi-color or tri-color combinations, as well as tortoiseshell and calico patterns. Furthermore, Maine Coons can showcase a range of eye colors, including gold, green, copper, or even heterochromia, where each eye is a different color. 

Our Maine Coons 
Cassandra is has a gray coat often referred to as a "blue" Maine Coon. This term describes a coat color that appears gray or bluish-gray. Blue Maine Coons can exhibit various shades of gray, from lighter silver-gray to darker slate-gray tones. Their fur may also have subtle tabby markings or patterns, adding to their distinctive appearance.

Harley is a Black Silver Tabby with Silver. This type of tabby resembles a white bengal tiger. She has the classic “M” on her forehead and strips on her legs, face and body (the ones on her body being less defined)

Elizabeth is a Black Smoke with White. “With White” means she has white on all four paws and a tuft of white under her chin. Right now she has ghost tabby markings that will most likely fade as she gets older.

Samson is a Black Smoke. Black Smoke is a variation of the Maine Coon cat with a black coat and white undercoat that creates a smoky appearance. The fur at the roots is lighter and gradually darkens, creating a "smoke-like" effect. The undercoat is usually gray, but it becomes more apparent when you ruffle the fur. 

Jasperr (Yahoo) is a Red Silver Tabby with White. In other words, the tips of their hair are colored silver, while the roots are white. Some red tabbies have patches of white fur, such as on their chest, stomach, paws, legs, or tail tip.
