Meet the British Shorthair Cat Breed
There are many different breeds of cat,
but I'm going to introduce you to the
British Shorthair. They are thought to
be the oldest breed of English cat. They
were originally only available in the
gorgeous blue colour but in the 1950's
more colours were available. Because originally
they were only available in this blue
colour they were also named British Blue
but this change to British Shorthair with
the introduction of additional colours
of fur.
The breed was developed in Europe from
non pedigree breeds and were previously
crossed with Persians to increase their
coats thickness. They are believed to
have been brought to Europe by the ancient
Romans.
They
have a short stocky frame which is very
muscular and because of their shape and
power are sometimes referred to as the
bulldog of the cat world. This breed of
cat has round whisker pads, making them
look like they've got a permanent smile.
They are thought to have inspired the
iconic Cheshire cat image and the cat
from Alice in Wonderland. Males are always
larger than females and they are one of
the larger cat breeds. As with many pedigree
breeds the life expectancy is shorter
than that of a non pedigree cat breeds
and expected to live until their early
teens. British Shorthair cats have a tendency
to put on weight especially after they
have been neutered so you may need to
put them on a restricted diet or at least
keep a close eye on their weight.
They are patient and affectionate cats
so are great for families with young children.
They also make great indoor cats so are
well suited to flats or apartments. They're
not the type of cat to come and sit on
your knee but they will sit beside you.
They also prefer to keep their paws firmly
on the floor so they don't like to be
picked up and cuddled but love you bending
down to give them a gentle stroke. The
Shorthair Breed isn't very vocal but they
will tell you if their hungry so they
will communicate without difficulty. They're
not typically hyperactive either so you
shouldn't have them chasing things around
your lounge bouncing themselves off the
walls. They are very clever and alert
which is why they tend to be a common
breed using in cat adverts such as Sheba
cat food. Because of their relaxed nature
they cope with being involved in cat shows
and tend to the most popular breed at
them.
