No. 4 on the friendly list – Himalayan cat

Second place on the friendly list – Persian cat
The Persian cat is one of the most popular purebred cats among cat lovers in the world. Its pleasing face, long and gorgeous back hair, and elegant demeanor make it known as the “Prince/Princess of Cats”.

In addition to these 7 kinds of cats, the coquettish Chinchilla cat, the quiet and friendly exotic shorthair cat, and the large and docile Linqing lion cat are also well-behaved and good babies, which are very suitable for raising a large litter.
