British Longhair🐈 Chats

British Longhair

Felis catus

Fait Amusant

British Longhairs resulted from crosses between British Shorthairs and Persians after WWII, when the breed was nearly lost.

The longhaired variant of the British Shorthair, with the same stocky, cobby body and plush, dense coat — but semi-long. Calm, dignified, and undemanding. Excellent family companions with a soft, gentle nature.
