Maine Coon Kitten's ‘Creamsicle' Mohawk Is the Coolest Look

Kittens are all born with some similar features: their coats haven't fully come in yet, and their eyes are always the same shade of baby grey. However, it doesn't take very long at all for them to start standing apart from the crowd.

Some do so more than others. Just look at this little Maine Coon kitten: he looks like he was kissed by a creamsicle on the top of his head! It's amazing, and I don't think I could love him more if I tried:

Only difference is he wouldn't apologize #mainecoon#mainecoonsoftiktok#mainecoonkitten#mainecooncat#mainecoonlovers

Evermore Maine Coons has some of my favorite kittens ever, and I think this orange boy takes the cake. He's so perfect, especially with the way his belly is nearly entirely white! He legitimately looks like a creamsicle, and the little mohawk on top of his head only makes that better.

He looks like a little lion cub, too. As he gets older, he's only going to get more beautiful: he's a European Maine Coon, which means he's in for:

• A super long coat.
• Sharp features.
• A very, very fluffy tail.
• Hairy ears and paws.

He's going to be amazing when he grows up, but honestly, I'll be a little sad to see his baby fur go! It's just so cute.

Do you want to hear something crazy? This Maine Coon kitten's parents aren't orange, not even a little bit. In fact, both of them are grey, and they managed to have him! Other than the strange coloring, though, I hope they passed on some of their gorgeous genes:

It's cats like these who make me want a Maine Coon more than I've ever wanted anything in my life. I know I can't have one right now, but one day, I'd love to!

Do Maine Coon Kittens' Coats Change?

Was anyone else super blonde as a kid, only for your hair to become way less blonde when you grew up? In most of my childhood pictures, I swear, I don't even have eyebrows. The same thing happens to our pets!

As they age, a Maine Coon's fur darkens significantly. Light grey kittens can often become nearly black cats, and these "creamsicle" kittens typically develop a more vibrant orange coat. Exactly how much their colors will deepen depends on the individual cat, but you can expect a decent change.

Maine Coons take about 4 years to reach full-grown, with about half of that time being heavily devoted to developments like:

• Filling out.
• Fluffing up.
• Forming their adult coat.

It's one of the most fascinating transitions ever, and although 4 years may feel like a long time, it's also the blink of an eye. Enjoy it while it lasts!
