Whats your favourite type of cat?

[Kelly]

Maine coon maine coon - love em!

[caledonia]

I'd hate to own a Maine Coon who hated to be groomed,couldn't think of a worst senario

Welcome to my world! 

Treats in one hand, comb in the other is how i get away with it.

I love all cats, some do catch the eye for thier looks but it is personality that does win out in the end.

Me too - although my iold man is so fussy the treat needs to be practically put in his mouth (more so Edgar won't nick it) but still doesn't stop the occasional swipe at me when he doesn't like his back end being brushed!

Must say I've never thaught what my "favourite" is but to look at I do like Gingers and Maine Coons although I'd hate to own a Maine Coon who hated to be groomed,couldn't think of a worst senario

But I love all cats,even the tempremental ones

[Kirst]

Ooooh a white tiger would be nice , but imagine the size of the litter box!

[JackSpratt]

In truth a big cat

D'you mean a lion or tiger or such? I hear ya!

Why do they do the buddha pose - Sol does it all the time 

It's mad, isn't it?   

This pic of Alfie was taken at about 5 in the morning - I had suddenly woken up and thought I heard something at the back of the house. I went into the back bedroom and disturbed Alfie who had been sleeping in the doorway. He's a deep sleeper - and a snorer, too. He sort of sat up in a bit of a drunken stupor and, seeing as the camera was on the desk, I took this pic. Given the state of his eyes (they are cleaned every morning!) and his position, I see his pose in the 'eh?  what  . . . .?' category . . . .. .

Tough call - all cats get my vote but I am partial to the madness, the flooffiness and the sheer roundness of a stocky persian . . . . .

i would love a grey cat, and I love the look of longhaireds and Bengals, but know I couldnt keep up with them. i am lucky at the moment, as I have one of my favourite colours, a pure black. Even when I have gone to a rescue, I haven't actually chosen a cat, and doubt that will change - as long as it is old and needs a home, it has one.

I was calling kylie in the garden the other day and it was a bit of black underlay on the grass  - It was dark!! 

I ripped a stair carpet out the other week and gradually putting bits in the dustbin which only goes once a fortnight. One piece ended up on the "lawn" and Kylie sits on it - but not that time she wasn't 

[bunglycat]

I have been across the grass infront of my house to feed an hedgehog before and it was a tuft of grass !
Also went to see a white cat in the same place as i was worried it wasn''t moving and it was a paper bag !!

[Millys Mum]

Ela, you can have a favourite type doesnt mean you would have to choose it. My lot are all peoples unwanteds, but im lucky in that my fav type of cat would more than likely end up as a desperate in need type 

I love all cats, but Ragdolls are my favourites having four of them.

Will you stop changing your username  its so easy to guess who you are!

Their beauty takes my breath away.

I think it's fair to say I'm a catlover. I was in M&S yesterday and saw what I thought was a black cat with pointy ears on one of their cards so went across to have a look (of course). It turned out to be a silly pic of a little black dress -what I'd thought were cute black cat ears were the shoulders of the dress 
This may also prove that with age my eyesight's not what it was.....

This really made me giggle!! I'm like that too... I recently confessed something to my friends that made them all convinced I'm a freak; whenever I'm on a train and go past rows and rows of houses, I do ''cat-flap spotting''... I actually count the number of catflaps I see on the way, and kinda panicks if the trains go faster as I can't keep up the counting! 

[Den]

I really like the ginger tabbys and I looooooove long haired cats, so I guess a long haired ginger tabby would suit me just fine  Nothing would ever beat my unique boy so ginger would be second best.

As long as they are a feline I dont care  - Though tabbies to hold a special place xxxx

[Sheli_80]

I love long haired cats they are just big bundles of fluff 

But rather like Ela before I'm a sucker for the cat no-one wants. When I saw a pic of Henry I had to have him despite my OH reservations of getting an older cat. Even the CPL were shocked he was the cat I wanted as he is a bit raggedey looking being all skin and bone with scabby ears and runny eyes. But I wouldn't have him any other way I adore my little old man his personality wins me over every time 

[Ela]

I could never choose a favourite cat, although if I had to choose I would pick the most desperate. I feel the needs of the little ones comes way ahead of any indulgence.

[bunglycat]

Gillian- she is gorgeous

[Susanne (urbantigers)]

Its got to be Colourpoint Persians for me

Really?  I'd never have guessed 

I seem to have always gone for the opposite of what I said at the time I wasnt' too keen on!  Believe it or not, I wasn't that keen on gingers until I met Jaffa and he chose me to be his slave.  Neither was I keen on longhaired cats but I chose Magpie to come and live with Jaffa and me.  Then when I chose Mosi, I went for a semi longhaired breed (despite my general preference for short haired cats) and a red cat despite originally wanting a usual or sorrel.  Whatever we say we prefer, their purrsonalities usually win us over no matter what their appearance.

[Gillian Harvey]

Its got to be Colourpoint Persians for me - what a surprise LOL! And I always wanted a Seal-Tabby Colourpoint, and now I have one - the 'Glamorous Gwyngala' (little madam to her friends!)




I especially love the colourpoint persians because of their blue eyes. I've a long way to go before I have the whole range of colourpoints, so far I have 2 redpoints, 1 creampoint, 1 bluecream point, 1 lilacpoint, 1 bluepoint, 1 seal tabby point - oh and a solid red (don't know how he got in there - my Joe LOL!) - the other possibilities of colourpoints are endless, lilac cream, lilac tabby, choccie, tortie, tortie/tabby, red tabby, cream tabby etc, etc ....................don't think I've got room in the house LOL! 

[koscha (Ruth M)]

Well I finally got one of my favourite types of cat, a grey! But I have to say my all time favourite type of cats are Birmans and Raggies-Angels on 4 paws 

But saying that I LOVE ALL KITTIES!!!!

Every kitty I see on this site gets an awwwwwwwwww 

[maryas]

My favourite cats are the ones that begin with C and end in S and have AT in the middle.

nope, not long-hairs for me. Too high maintenance. Give me a cat you can run a rubber glove over a couple of times a year and I am happy. If I had to groom them daily or weekly I would fall down on the job big time. Bob was  long-hair but he was an accidental cat, and luckily had the kind of coat that did not require regular grooming if you were prepared to cope with white carpets (originally brown  ) ...

[Rosella moggy]

I don't tend to find long haired cats very attractive but they are still cats and I still love them 

That was me too a couple of years ago Mark, always thought they looked a bit "big girls' blousey", then Aslan came and now Freddie. What can I say?  They sorta get t ya  

[tigerbaby]

I also like tigers but spose the catflap is too small.

[Mark]

I love slinky slender shiny cats but I love my chubby Kylie the most

[blackcat]

Oh BC  . Who dat? 

the Smidge-meister 

[candyshandy]

Shock its persians for me - I just love their squishy fat faces and cobby bodies 

I always wanted a black one and I now have Fabes 

I would love a Golden Chinchilla - if you ever go to a show in the North West I'll be the one spending ages looking at them and having little chats

[Susanne (urbantigers)]

(kittens do sleep right?)

erm, no 

[Rosella moggy]

Oh BC  . Who dat? 

Have to admit to a real hankering for NFC's or plain long haired tabbies like my angel Aslan RIP

[blackcat]

you are forgetting my secret weapon 

[Rosella moggy]

OK that's it, I vote Linda is excluded from cat show!  I mean really.....what's the point?    

[blackcat]

short haired. Apart from that, breedwise, I have a weakness for Aby's, siamese, burmese, and a passionate attachment to silver somalis, having met one at the last show I went to. However, basically if is has fur, paws, a tail (or where one once was) and purrs, then it is OK with me 

[Linda (Bengalbabe)]

Cant think what mine might be  

[Millys Mum]

My favourite type of cat is a rough round the edges ex entire tom with a huge head and extra toes 

[Kirst]

hehehe I had a sylvester as a child!
