Could be a mixed-breed? I'm no expert, but things like that do happen.
Either way, what an interesting and special little genetic anomaly you've found. I had a cat whose belly -- and only her belly -- was covered in fine curls. Straight everywhere else. Never seen anything like it before or since.
Probably a domestic longhair. Maine Coons have really distinctive heavy snouts, they're dramatically huge, like the size of a bobcat, and they've got this dense 3 layer coat that forms a lion-like mane.
If it's just some little dude that wandered up out of the world in the top 50th percentile of fluffiness, what you've got there is a domestic longhair. Probably introduce him to brushing while he's young because mats aren't fun, otherwise same operator's manual as a shorthair. Obligate carnivore diet, scatching post and sandbox, gentle scritches behind the ears, lots of naps, sunny windowsill for basking.
Idk they're like people, races/breeds are just made up nonsense. It's all one species felis catus, they can all breed together, and your cat is a unique and beautiful cat!

He's missing the super long ear hair tufts. Here's my guy for comparison
Uhh that's not a cat, that's the guy who played Hellboy
Lol, maybe you already knew, but there is/was a subreddit called "RonPerlmanCats"
Oh boy... now I discovered that Sarah Connor once fall in love with a Kilrathi. The 80s/90s where a interesting time.
blep
I don’t know why, but your cat is giving strong Ralph Wiggum energy
I think it’s how the hairs that stick out clump into strands
How lewd.
Looks like he might be crossed with one.
Also that pose is amazing lol
My cat's breath smells like cat food.
If he grows to 2x that size, yes
Little dude has got a skullet 😭
Literally devin townsend in a different font

I’d say no, due to the lack of a mane
Also no where near big enough

Does your cat look like Ron Perelman? If so, yes. If not, no.
Yep, that's Ron right above your comment. :D

He is Mainly Coon
I don't know, but it sure is adorable.
Your pretty cat is obviously turning into Reed Richards. Congratulations!
