British Shorthair

Best known in its blue colour, the British breed now comes in many colours and patterns including Bi-colour and Himalayan, (like the Siamese). They are a powerful, muscular cat with a compact cobby body and short legs. The head is round with small ears and the eyes are large, round and set well apart. They have a short, dense coat with a crisp appearance which tends to crack open as the cat moves. The British is easy going, friendly and gentle; they make adaptable pets and are less destructive than many other breeds.
