  2. I know one breed that should be included~ the Turkish Angora, I have one, and he is really nice, but not overly affectionate, and does enjoy attention, and I think of them as intelligent cats as well, they have long tails and are very expressive. Mine is actually kind of short and plump, but they are curious and well mannered. Yes, just like some of their cousins, they enjoy water.

    1. Sara ,,, you own them? Isn't that supposed to be the other way round?
      I mean after all, you know the ancient Egyptians were right. Cats are gods and we can not own gods. It's against the natural order of things.

  21. Make sure to spay or fix your new pet - consistently countless felines endure surrender in every one of our real urban communities. Each feline you help bring into the world takes a home from one of those vagrants. You may need your kids to see the "wonder of birth' and simply need kitty to have one litter - however this is a narrow minded and flighty practice. It's as senseless as empowering high school pregnancy with the goal that your youngsters can see the marvel of birth. Do the mindful thing... do the sympathetic thing... lease a nature video on the off chance that you truly need them to see the marvel of birth! funny gifts for cat lovers
