1-month-old Maine Coon cross kitten?

Hi everyone! On the 20th of December my cat gave birth to a kitten (a little girl). I thought she was quite big even then, but I figured that since she was an only kitten, she'd just developed really well in the womb (she already filled almost my whole hand when she was born). She's just over a month old now and I'm starting to wonder about her parentage... there are a few stray cats that often come into my garden but none of them look like her, and she’s a far cry from her mum! (who's a Siamese cross). I know one of my neighbours has a Maine Coon, but I only saw him once ages ago and I don't remember exactly what his coat or colour was like... looking up photos of Maine Coon kittens, I was struck by the resemblance to my kitten Lilo!

Here are a few photos of Lilo; I could ask my neighbour directly, but I'm worried about making a fool of myself if she doesn't look like one at all...

So, I'm turning to you lot, if there are any experts around...

Thanks!

    Thanks for your reply ^^ As for the rest... don't worry, I’m the first to know about these sorts of things. Her mum was a stray found on the street and I adopted her, along with another female cat I've had for several years who was also a rescue. She actually had to be spayed out of necessity after I found her by the side of the road with her stomach torn open... the vets spayed her during the surgery, especially since a litter would have been life-threatening for her! But little Lilo’s mum’s first season caught me a bit off guard... a tom cat got to her before I could keep her indoors until it had passed (yes, I barely slept for nearly two weeks, but there was no way I was giving her the pill). So, for now, I don’t really feel like I’m contributing to the stray problem... then I realised she was pregnant, so it was impossible to have her spayed! Anyway, that’s about it :) thanks again!
