Maine Coons are usually very big cats...20+ pounds...usually very lovable and just want to be in your lap, playful even when they are old, tend to have markings and fur kind of like a lynx or bob cat. They are also I believe the first "American" breed. But you are right...lot of people have MC cross. The dead give away is the tufts on the ears, and fur around the neck like a mane.
