Overview A sturdy cat with a dense, plush coat, round face and copper or golden eyes. Quiet, dignified and easy to live with.
Key benefits

  • Low-maintenance coat: weekly brushing, more in shedding season
  • Adapts well to apartment living
  • Quiet and not demanding of constant attention
Best for Apartments, busy professionals and calm households.
