Portland is one of the most cat-friendly cities in America, and Maine Coons thrive in the Pacific Northwest climate. Dashing Coons is a TICA-registered European Maine Coon cattery in Southern Illinois, and we deliver to Portland through our personal flight nanny service. Your kitten travels in-cabin — never in cargo — and is handed off to you at PDX.

Why Portland Families Love Maine Coons

Portland's culture — independent, curious, deeply connected to nature — is a natural fit for Maine Coons. These are cats that explore, engage, and bond deeply with their people. Our European bloodlines from Russia and Ukraine produce cats with the dramatic structure the breed is known for: tall ear tufts, square muzzles, heavy bone, and a presence that fills a room. Portland families who've seen our kittens consistently say they're unlike anything available locally in Oregon.

Black Smoke, Blue Smoke, and Polydactyl

We specialize in black smoke and blue smoke Maine Coons — kittens born nearly solid black that reveal a stunning silver undercoat over the first year. We also breed polydactyl Maine Coons with the extra-toe trait that traces back to the breed's New England origins. These are rare in Oregon, and Portland families who find us often say they searched for months.

Flight Nanny Service to Portland

We arrange a personal flight nanny for Portland deliveries — a trusted individual who travels with your kitten in the cabin of a commercial flight and hands them off to you at PDX. Your kitten is never alone, never in cargo, and never handled by strangers. We coordinate the full logistics and keep you updated throughout the journey.
