Cat lovers among you probably either have or want a British Shorthair kitty – they are so fluffy and perfectly photogenic!
“The British Shorthair is native to England. With the rise of cat shows during the Victorian era, cat fanciers began to breed the cats to a particular standard and keep pedigrees for them. At the earliest cat shows, British Shorthairs were the only pedigreed cats exhibited. All others were simply described by coat type or color,” writes the Cat Time portal.
Today, we know them as calm and huggable cats who are perfect for indoor life. They adore children, too, so they make a great family pet.
“The British Shorthair is mellow and easygoing, making him an excellent family companion. He enjoys affection, but he’s not a “me, me, me” type of cat. Expect him to follow you around the house during the day, settling nearby wherever you stop,” Cat Time writes.
