British Shorthair
British Shorthair cats are seen by most people as a big cuddly teddy bear, but I have found that they are more inclined to sit with you, or next to you, bonded by their devotion to YOU, and inclined to show (British) reserve with visitors.
So it is important to put as much quality bonding time into your kitten when they are young, then they are yours for life! They enjoy a steady quiet peaceful home but can have their moments of play and bursts of energy as they thunder like a herd of elephants down the hallway chasing a toy or something they imagine.
British cats have a dense thick coat, which is part of their charm, with fine thick undercoat which is characteristic of the breed. Grooming regularly in a mature cat is necessary, particularly in the time of seasonal coat changes.
Kittens need high quality food and often, to lay down the foundations of a good sturdy body structure, but as adults, considering their size, a moderate portioned quality diet is all that is required to have a long healthy fuss free life.
