Our Queen - Stevie Nicks
Stevie Nicks is the foundation queen of Treska Maine Coons, and just like her namesake, she has a presence that's impossible to ignore. Graceful, confident, and a little bit mysterious, Stevie carries herself with quiet confidence while effortlessly running the household. She has no problem reminding the boys who's in charge, hides little "treasures" in the funniest places, and always comes running when I call her name.
Despite her confident nature, Stevie has an incredibly sweet and loving personality. She thrives on affection, enjoys being close to her people, and has become my constant companion. As a mother, she is attentive, gentle, and devoted to her kittens. Her exceptional temperament, intelligence, and loving disposition are just as important to me as her beautiful type, and they are qualities I hope to preserve in every generation of Treska Maine Coons.
Stevie is a striking brown patched classic tabby and white, with bold, swirling patterning softened by warm patches of color and crisp white. Her coat is richly textured and eye-catching, balanced by a feminine head, expressive eyes, and the substantial bone and balance the Maine Coon standard calls for. Beyond her beauty, she has a gentle, affectionate nature — observant, people-oriented, and quietly confident — the kind of presence that draws you in and stays with you.
Stevie truly runs the house. She keeps the boys in line with effortless authority, bosses even the biggest males around, and somehow still manages to be the most playful of them all. Whether she’s initiating a game or reminding the older boys that retirement is not an option, Stevie brings energy, intelligence, and unmistakable presence to everything she does. Equal parts beauty, confidence, and charm, she is very much the heart — and the boss — of our home. Despite ruling the house, she’s delightfully playful — once claiming a plastic fork as her favorite toy and carrying it around all evening. She also uses my granddaughter's pack-n-play as the perfect spot for her hidden treasures.
Beneath her confident, in-charge presence, Stevie is the gentlest soul — a devoted chest cat who wants to be as close as possible, preferably with her head tucked under your chin. She purrs like a little motorboat and spends her evenings walking back and forth on the couch between family members, carefully sharing the love, as if it’s her most important job. She has never met a stranger and will greet you with all the love the first time you meet her.
