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 4 of 16 breeds. Traits are typical of the breed; every cat is an individual.
A large, calm, people-oriented pointed cat that tends to suit families, apartments and first-time owners.
A quiet, gentle longhair for a calm home, with the highest grooming needs of any breed on PurrTrust.
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 sturdy, calm, independent cat that suits apartments, workdays and first-time owners.
The Persian's flat face and gentle temperament in a plush, easier-care short coat.
