American Shorthair

This cat was brought to the U.S. from Europe, where it was used as a hunting cat that was very good at controlling mouse infestations. Its appearance is somehow thick and might make you believe that this cat will be pretty heavy when picked up. It also has a dense coat that helps this cat stay warm during the winter.

The American Shorthair is an active cat, and its hunting instincts are still awake. Be sure to always have something to entertain your feline companion. It could be toys or another pet. If you can’t keep this cat busy, it will find a way to entertain itself and turn anything that it can find in your house into a toy.

They are loving and easygoing cats that want to be around their family while still keeping some personal space. The American Shorthair can be the ideal pet for someone who lives alone.
