Cat Tail Type: Long or Short?

Whether they are long-haired, short-haired or a mix of both, each breed has a unique set of characteristics and personality. Some of those characteristics demand a certain lifestyle or a good understanding of their needs. For example, if you have children or other pets, some types of cats play more nicely than others. Also, consider how much time you’re willing to spend grooming your pet. Some cat species require very little grooming, while others need to be brushed regularly to stay clean and healthy. And if someone is allergic to cats in your household, consider hypoallergenic cats or low allergy cats.

The “semi-foreign” type: middle-sized bodies, standard shape: American curl, devon rex, Havana brown, munchkin, sphynx, snowshoe.

Other Popular Hybrid Cat Breeds

Crossbred cats often still receive the same amount of notoriety as purebreds or later get classified as purebreds or experimental purebreds until they are well-established. They are considered designer breeds and often sell for thousands of dollars. Many of these crossbreeds/hybrids are some of the world’s most popular cats and later became purebreds:

Bengalensis) with a domestic breed to produce a wild-looking, large house cat with exceptional traits—rosettes, large spots, and “mascara” around the eyes—much like a leopard. The international cat association considers them to be a registered breed.
