I've had Maine Coons... Always had a Siamese till recently also... Really like that breed.. Now I have mutts. A 13 year old tabby, a black cat and Misty Peppers... She showed up after Puddy (last Siamese) died and said "I heard you have an opening for a kickass cat." She's pretty kickass... We tend to think her mom was a sphinx and was knocked up by a non-sphinx and was dumped. She has no undercoat, which = very little shedding.
