Breed guides
Temperament, size, grooming, allergies, health tests and typical US prices for every breed on PurrTrust. Filter by what matters in your home, then read the full guide or browse verified litters.
Showing 7 of 16 breeds. Traits are typical of the breed; every cat is an individual.
An athletic, intensely curious spotted or marbled cat for an active home that wants to play every day.
A hairless, warm, extroverted cat that wants constant company — and regular baths.
Start with your home rather than looks: how much time you spend at home, how much grooming you will realistically do, whether you have children or a dog, and how much space there is to climb. Then look at health. Every breed has conditions that responsible breeders screen for, and each guide lists the tests to ask about.
No breed is hypoallergenic. If allergies are a concern, spend time with adult cats of the breed before you commit. Our buyer guides cover finding a reputable breeder, health tests, contracts and getting your kitten home.
A slender, talkative, intensely social cat that wants to be involved in everything you do.
A strong, playful forest cat with a triple coat, often chosen by allergy-prone homes — though no cat is allergen-free.
A pixie-faced, wavy-coated clown that wants to sit on your shoulder and be in the middle of everything.
A sleek, ticked-coat athlete that explores everything and would rather play than sit in your lap.
A tall, spotted serval hybrid with huge energy — and ownership rules you must check before buying.
