The big difference between the Norwegian Forest Cat (NFC) and the more popular Maine Coon is the shape of the muzzle. The NFC muzzle is triangular whereas the Maine Coon muzzle is box-like. It's quite noticeable and if you want to distinguish between the two breeds first look at their muzzle.

Then you should look at their ears. The Maine Coon ears are bigger and sit more erect on the head with long hairs protruding from the tip of the ear flaps (lynx-tipped).

The ears of the NFC are pretty standard for regular domestic cats. Once again you will see a big difference in this aspect of their anatomy.
