When choosing a cat, future owners often take into account its character, especially if the family has children. Scientists have compiled a small list, which included 5 breeds of the most affectionate and kind animals.
Abyssinian cat
She can be praised for hours: beautiful, smart, able to find a common language with strangers, loves all household members very much - from young to old. But he always chooses only one owner as the "main" one. Therefore, it is better to start this breed for a person who, first of all, wants to find a companion for himself, and not a pet.
Maine Coon
These cats will hide their feelings in every possible way until they finally become attached to the owner, then they give true love, become very devoted. They are not capable of offending a child, but due to their large dimensions, experts do not recommend leaving them alone with very young children. We are ready to be friends with dogs and other cats.
Exotic shorthair cat
This animal lives only to be cherished and loved. At first, he is wary of everyone around him, but if he realizes that you are trustworthy, he will not find a more devoted friend. He will begin to follow his heels and seek attention, regardless of whether you want to play with him or not. In the absence of a beloved owner, it can lose appetite.
British longhair cat
This breed is rightfully considered the best for a family with small children. Animals are confident, affectionate and kind. They calmly endure strong hugs and squeezing, swimming in water. Somewhat lazy, but they can easily make friends with dogs and other pets. They just don’t like it when anyone other than the beloved owner touches their things.
Russian blue cat
On the surface, she may seem proud and loving loneliness, but this is completely wrong. The animal loves to play, actively follow the owner's heels and generally be a part of everything that he does. At night he usually sleeps next to the owner. He is calm about children, although he never becomes a participant in their games. It gets along with large pets, perceives small ones as prey. Can't stand strangers.
Burmese cat
Perhaps the sweetest and most patient cats. They are completely incapable of living alone! They need the owner to be always there. They love to sit in his arms, flatter, "talk". Claws are almost never released in games. They calmly endure the most negligent attitude on the part of young children. They are happy to play with other pets. They treat strangers simply, big companies like them.
The redgall cat, which is attached to its owner, and not to the house, can also be ranked as affectionate and kind cat breeds - contrary to popular belief. And also representatives of the Manx breed, "Scots" folds, the Neva Masquerade cat, the Sphynx, Burma. Of course, this list is very conditional. Indeed, many animals, to which the owners are affectionate and kind, respond to them with great love. Even the most common ones are those that are usually called "courtyards".
