There are more and more people raising cats, and the breeds of cats are also varied, but some of them have always been very popular. Let me introduce them to you below.
1. The American Shorthair
The American Shorthair was recognized in 1906. They were initially named "Domestic Shorthair". They rode the Mayflower boat with European immigrants to North America to capture mice in the cabin. They are a purely natural and functional cat. Under the long-term breeding optimization of humans, stable varieties have been cultivated.
American shorthair is naturally kind, easy-going, and is very popular in the family. They tolerate children and can act very calmly. Female cats are often more lively than male cats, while male cats are often more easy-going in character.
2. British Shorthair
British Shorthair is probably the oldest British breed cat, and their ancestors can be traced back to domestic cats from the Roman era. They were previously known for their strength and hunting ability. British shorthair cats were initially British street stray cats, but with the continuous selection of breeders, a stable breed has been formed.
British shorthair cats are very common. They are friendly and friendly, not particularly clingy, but they also enjoy people's care and love. They are loyal but don’t like to stay on people’s legs, they prefer to squeeze on the sofa next to you, which people call “cats with all four legs on the ground.” They are quieter, do not run around, and tolerate children and dogs. They don't like being hugged.
3. Exotic Shorthair Cat (Garfield)
Exotic Shorthair Cat is actually the result of "unintentional planting willow". The breeder of the American shorthair breeds the American shorthair with Persian cats. He originally wanted to get silver hair and green eyes, but the results were not satisfactory. But the new breed looks unusually cute, and breeders suggest that they become a new breed called "sterling" (meaning silver).
Exotic shorthair cats are friendly, docile, and have the quiet traits similar to Persian cats. They will gain your attention with eyes that you can't refuse. Their shorthaired cat ancestors made them love to play. They are soft and can live in harmony with children and other pets. They are afraid of unfamiliar people and have low concern for humans.
4. Persian cats
Persian cats are named after the country where they originated - Persia, but archaeological studies have also pushed the historical origins of this breed of cats to more than 1,600 BC. Persian cats are the earliest breeds at cat exhibitions. Persian cats have been one of human favorite cat breeds since records began. The Victorian Queen who created the Victorian era is said to have two blue-eyed Persian cats. The size and personality of Persian cats determine their noble temperament.
Persian cats are sweet and gentle. They like a stable environment and like to be treated gently. They do not like to move, play, or be quiet, and mainly rely on their big eyes to communicate. They do not require too much attention, can be alone at home, and are relatively timid.
5. The Ragdoll Cat
Ruboll Cat was first bred by Ann Baker in the 1960s. The ancestors of Ragdoll Cats were almost all stray cats. Ann breeds a white long-haired female cat she adopts with her other adopted cats whose offspring has an unusually quiet personality, and when she holds them, some hanging loosely on her arms like puppets. After screening of appearances such as fur color, she invented the breed of mutton.
Rubbow cats are relaxed and happy, like children's dolls. They are friendly, quiet and seem lazy. They are not very active and do not like to scream. Ragdoll cats are known for their tolerance. They can tolerate wearing clothes and walking around with their hands and will not resist. Because of their friendliness and intelligence, they are often taken to analogies with dogs.
