    Good Points: Very laid back, patient and friendly.

    Bad Points: Can easily get fat. Can be lazy and not so keen on playing as they get older. Need quite a bit of grooming (couple of times a week), otherwise they will shed a lot of their undercoat. Can be expensive as a kitten to buy.

    General comments: We are proud to own our 4th British Shorthair now and they have all been British Blues with the exception of one Blue/Cream. They have all been fantastic cats, very laid back, very patient with us, each other and the children. Also they are real characters with quirky habits like sleeping on smelly sports things or in the washing on the line (using the sheets as a hammock). I can really recommend them, their plush fur and amber eyes makes them look very cuddly and stunning at the same time. They always leave an impression with everyone.

    I think British Shorthairs are friendly and affectionate also cuddly. But they can be a bit grumpy.I am not an expert on cats, I'm more of a dog person but I do love cats. My cat is older than me. She's black and white, with a smooth coat and a cobby body, so I think shes a British Shorthair or she might be a cross.

    I adopted my Liliac Colourpoint British Shorthair Cat about two years ago. He is an ex stud cat. He is now five years old. He is the most loyal cat I have ever had. He is very responsive ie, when you call him he comes bounding over. He shares his home with a child who is now five and he adores her. He has shown amazing patience with her and has never scratched, bitten or hissed at anyone. He is great in the car, visits to the vets are not a problem as he enjoys the ride. He tends to be quite ...
