Grateful Dead Litter
King Tide and Queen Akasha
Our last litter of the year has officially arrived — and we’re finishing strong.
This litter is extra special for a few reasons…
First, it is our King Tide’s final litter because he headed off to enjoy a spoiled, well-deserved retirement with his bonded companion, Mercedes. Tide helped us build the foundation of our program and we are so grateful for the beautiful legacy he leaves behind.
It’s also the very first litter for our girl Akasha. We still need to properly introduce her on our website. She is incredibly special to us — we imported her directly from a highly sought-after breeder overseas, coming from massive, impressive lines with truly stunning structure. She represents the future of our program and we’re so proud of her. She has been a wonderful mom already.
This litter had quite the entrance into the world. Little Jerry arrived breech, and it took a long time. We were genuinely prepping to call our vet for an emergency visit. But Akasha pulled through and everyone is doing well.
All kittens will remain under observation until around 8 weeks old, and we will likely keep one back to continue the strength and style of our lines. Each kitten has such unique markings and already has that unmistakable Maine Coon expression we all adore.
“Just keep on keepin’ on…”
