Persian

These adorable balls of fluff could be described as the superstars of the cat world! They are usually medium-sized, but their fur can make them look bigger than they really are. They aren’t naturally super active, so you have to keep an eye on their nutrition to make sure they don’t become overweight.

Make sure you will have enough time for this attention-seeking breed! They get on famously with everyone, so if you have kids or other pets, it’s a great combination.

Daily grooming is a must to maintain their luscious coats, which means you'll need to set aside some time for plenty of brushing.

Ragdoll

From a high maintenance breed to a low maintenance breed – the Ragdoll! They're easy to care for, and fantastic with kids and other pets. In fact, they'll stick to you like glue and follow you wherever you go in the house (just like a toddler!).

They may be low maintenance, but they still need their exercise and playtime. Keeping them happy and healthy is important so make sure they get plenty of opportunities to chase toys and enjoy interactive play. If you're looking for a loving and easy-to-handle feline friend, a Ragdoll might just be the perfect fit for you.

Australian Mist

The fashionistas of the cat world! They are medium-sized and come in a variety of colours with the most gorgeous, silky, fine coats. They absolutely thrive on human company and get along famously with other animals. They are bundles of energy and always ready for playtime. They also love to snuggle up with their favourite humans, so be prepared!

The best part is that the Australian Mist is very adaptable. They can make any space their own be a loving, sociable, and smart companion.

Siamese 

With their mesmerising blue eyes, Siamese cats are all the rage right now. But as we all know, looks aren’t everything, and they are also known for being very affectionate. So, when you come home, they’ll be waiting at the door! 

They also have a lively and curious nature, always exploring their surroundings and getting into playful mischief – and you can also train them to walk on a lead! 

One thing to note is that Siamese cats have a touch of independence. They like to have their own space and may do their own thing from time to time, so if you're looking for a charismatic and loving companion, a Siamese cat might just be your perfect match!

Russian Blue

This cat is all about elegance and style, with a sleek coat in stunning shades of grey or silver. But it's not just their good looks that make them special. They're active, smart, and super sociable, which means they make great companions. 

They’re not fans of crowds, but they like to have one-to-one playtime when you come home. Plus, they're highly independent and very clever!
