Richie is an adorable Maine Coon who lives in France, and is already known all over the world for his little quirks.

Some animals really do have very special physiques. This is the case of Richie, a Maine Coon cat who has gained a little fame on social media thanks to his surprising resemblance to a lemur.

A cat like no other

Although he looks a lot like a lemur, Richie has a bit more hair than his "twin", as you can see on the picture below:

As a kitten, Richie the Maine Coon didn't have the same coat colour, but it evolved along the way, much to everyone's surprise. Richie’s owner, Adriana, says that as soon as the cat started to change colour, it immediately attracted interest for its unusual appearance, so she quickly decided to create his own Instagram profile. Today, Richie already has 85,000 followers and each of his photos gets several thousand likes.

In addition to his exceptional appearance, Richie has an ideal character and makes his whole family happy, children including.
