What is your favourite breed and/or colour?

Mia and Jules - Mia is my tortoise shell who is obsessively affectionate, and Jules is my calico who is less cuddly but still loves attention. We had Jules first, then got Mia a few months later, they originally hated each other but after about a week or trying to kill one another they are inseperable and sleep together! Even share their food!

So what is your favourite breed or colour of cat? Mine is (i'm not sure if this is a breed, i'm pretty sure they are just mixed breeds with this colour) the tortoise shell and calico. They are the ones with orange/ginger, black, brown all different colours mixed up, tortoise shells have less white where calico's generally have a lot of white. I have had three tortoise shells/calico's and they are the best cats. They are affectionate, loving but also very independant and are even moody sometimes. I spoke to a vet a few weeks ago and apparently they are also great breeders, she said she knew of a 4 month old kitten having kittens and she was a tortoise shell!! Poor kitty! Another vet said they are tempermental too. Which is so true. One minute they will want cuddles, the next they don't want anything to do with you!Anyway so what's yours? and why?

My parents used to have a cattery when I was small, they only had Siamese cats. They have such a lovely character. I myself have ragdolls, they are just as sweet as siamese and they will let the kids play with them all the time, they don't mind at all. Plus I just think they are beautifull

I think if i was to ever have a purebred cat, i'd choose a ragdoll. I like how they are so patient and calm with kids, and very very tollerant!

...Of all I have read on cats and experienced, I adore Russian Blues! They are sweet, playful and very friendly. We have one. She has had two litters and all are crazy come evening. It is called the Midnight Frenzies. ...Someday, I would love to be a breeder of Russian Blues. ...Great thread, thanks for asking! Have a great day and peace be with you. =(^;^)= Della
