Be it how well a breed does with children, personality, size, and in this case, fur length. Medium-hair cat breeds truly are the best of both worlds when it comes to their coat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Long hair felines might just be one of the most beautiful types of cats out there. They look elegant and regal, while still having unique personalities and quirks. But as majestic as that long coat is, it&rsquo;s also very difficult to maintain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And short hair beauties are easier to groom, but it&rsquo;s hard to settle when you&rsquo;re in love with the fluff. Luckily, there is a compromise. Cat breeds with coats that resemble their long-haired sisters but are almost as easy to maintain as short-hair breeds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Let&rsquo;s take a look at some medium-hair cat breeds and their personalities and traits. Hopefully, the perfect feline for you is waiting to be discovered among all these beauties. Perhaps you&rsquo;ll even fall in love with multiple furballs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1.

This is because they don&rsquo;t shed too much, and aren&rsquo;t prone to matting. These qualities are what make grooming long fur the hardest. So, you don&rsquo;t have much to worry about with Ragdolls.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Not only is their coat fairly long, but it also has stunning coloration. They come in chocolate, seal, cream, red, blue, and lilac. And to make their appearance stand out even more, they have <a href=\"https:\/\/catschef.com\/do-all-ragdolls-have-blue-eyes\/\" data-lasso-id=\"2089\">piercing blue eyes<\/a>. As kittens, they&rsquo;re completely white but they gain color during the 8th to 10th week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ragdolls are the &ldquo;ladies&rdquo; of cat breeds. They&rsquo;re calm and elegant, and most prefer just spending time next to their owners rather than constant play. It&rsquo;s in their nature to be well-behaved and gentle, while still being curious and affectionate. They&rsquo;re perfect for first-time cat owners.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This breed is great with kids of all sizes, and they make for an excellent family pet. People often compare them to dogs because of their loving nature. They also love pets and cuddles like dogs do. But as much as they love your company, they&rsquo;re perfectly okay on their own, too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That makes them great for people who are away at work a lot. They&rsquo;re very adaptable and aren&rsquo;t needy at all. It doesn&rsquo;t take much to keep them happy. Just to be close to you and the occasional game of fetch is enough to make Ragdolls happy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2.

It&rsquo;s curly! Although it&rsquo;s not silky, it&rsquo;s still very soft and, since they don&rsquo;t have an undercoat, easy to manage. Their curly coat is pretty loose, and they come in practically all colors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They&rsquo;re very loving and they adapt well to any family structure, including those with other pets. They&rsquo;re highly active though, so they require more playtime than most breeds. So, be prepared for lots of games and exercise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A huge pro is that the LaPerm is not a very vocal cat. They mostly just purr. So, if you&rsquo;re not a fan of noise, they could be a great fit for you. Once they get tired of playing, they love to cuddle up next to their owners. Ideal if you love both snuggle time and play.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3.

They resemble wildcats a great deal and that&rsquo;s thanks to their short tails and body shape. Grooming them is fairly easy since they don&rsquo;t shed a lot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Despite their appearance, American Bobtails are docile and caring, and make for amazing family pets. They&rsquo;re active and playful, but they also love snuggling and napping. So, you get the best of both worlds. These felines love hunting, so they&rsquo;re not ideal for homes with other pets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Their most recognizable feature is their bobbed tail. It&rsquo;s a result of a genetic mutation that affects tail development. It makes the American Bobtail look both fierce like a wildcat and absolutely adorable and stubby.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4.

Their coat is smooth, silky, and easy to maintain. It&rsquo;s so soothing and relaxing to stroke them that you won&rsquo;t be able to resist cuddling them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And their temper is pretty much the same as well. They&rsquo;re caring and gentle, and excellent at reading their owner&rsquo;s moods. If you&rsquo;re feeling blue, they&rsquo;ll know exactly what to do. But they&rsquo;ll also know when to leave you alone if you need space.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They&rsquo;re athletic and muscular cats that need a lot of exercise. So be sure to supply them with plenty of toys. Outdoor activities and interactive games are a great way to satisfy this breed&rsquo;s needs. Regular playtime would also do them well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">5.

One of their most adorable features is their white paws, which make it look like they&rsquo;re wearing socks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They&rsquo;re highly social cats and they despise being left alone. The breed gets along well with both people and other animals, including dogs. It&rsquo;s usually recommended to get two of them when buying so they don&rsquo;t get lonely, especially if you work a lot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Birman is a quiet and gentle breed. They&rsquo;re playful and love spending time with you, but they don&rsquo;t require constant activity like most other cats. And grooming them is easy, too.

Their shape and size are a result of a genetic mutation that inhibits the growth of cartilage. Other names include Highland Fold, Scottish Fold Longhair, Longhair Fold, and Coupari.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They have dense fur, but it only needs weekly brushing. They&rsquo;re fairly active but also very cuddly, so they&rsquo;re great if you&rsquo;re looking for a &ldquo;moderate&rdquo; cat. Interactive play and climbing trees are quick ways to their heart.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They might develop some health problems due to the gene mutation, especially in later years. In general, they tend to be more sensitive than other cats. You&rsquo;ll need to be careful with their tail when playing or cuddling because it&rsquo;s stiff and painful when bent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">7.

Their coat is dense and usually reddish, but can also be blue, cinnamon, or fawn. Paired with their green or gold eyes, these cats look like they pounced out of a fairytale.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These felines have very outgoing personalities. They hate being alone and are generally friendly to everyone, but especially their owner. Other pets also present no problem to them; they&rsquo;re happy as long as they can play with them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Abyssinian is a very low-maintenance cat in all aspects except exercise. They need interactive play and since they love climbing, a cat tree might not be enough. Try looking into cat shelves that would allow her to move around your home and explore as many areas as possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">9.

They&rsquo;re also very intelligent, so if you love playing games or teaching tricks, this is the breed for you. Because of their high need for exercise, they might not be the best fit for busy people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They can get along well with children and other pets, but they work best with just adults. Unlike most felines, this breed actually enjoys water. So, to keep them happy and entertained, consider getting a water fountain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">10.

As for their eyes, they can be various shades of green.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They&rsquo;re a very sociable breed and love spending time with just about anyone. These felines get along well with kids and other pets. They aren&rsquo;t picky about who they play with, as long as they&rsquo;re not alone. Not even dogs are a problem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They&rsquo;re generally fairly active and they love a good game of chase. But their need for exercise isn&rsquo;t as high as it is in some other felines.

All they require is brushing two to three times a week and an occasional bath. Bathing will help loose hair come out and remove any dirt or dust.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These felines age a bit slower than other medium-hair cat breeds. So, your cat might behave like a kitten for full five years. They&rsquo;re very friendly and outgoing and get along well with other cats. In some cases, even dogs. They can tolerate children if they&rsquo;re gentle and well-behaved.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They are highly intelligent and need a lot of mental stimulation in the form of games. Interactive toys and frequent play sessions will keep them satisfied. Just be sure to change them up a bit every now and then, though, as they tend to get bored.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">15.

Their eyes can have various shades of blue and green, as well as gold, amber, and copper. They have a single coat which makes grooming easier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Their fur isn&rsquo;t prone to tangles or matting, so brushing them once per week should be enough. The Turkish Angora loves water and, surprisingly, swimming. So, bathing them won&rsquo;t be such an issue as it is with other breeds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These cats need a lot of exercise and if they don&rsquo;t get it, they can become mischievous. You can expect them to run around opening cupboards and drawers and knocking things over. Be sure to get them a wide variety of toys to prevent this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">16.

Thanks to this, they also get along with other pets, dogs included. They can also be good with well-mannered and gentle children.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This breed is best for active families that like spending a lot of time with their pets. They enjoy swimming, playing, and exploring. But they&rsquo;re not very good lap cats.

They love exploring and playing but will also cuddle up next to you without hesitation.

They&rsquo;re very tolerant, so they easily adapt to children of all ages. While they are playful, they don&rsquo;t require as much exercise as some other breeds. Their intelligence makes them easy to train.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">20.

They&rsquo;re easy to groom but don&rsquo;t skip combing, or mats might form. Their fur is gray, and their eyes can be either orange or copper.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They have a very mild temperament, and their quiet nature makes them ideal for people looking for a calm companion. They need a moderate amount of exercise. But they&rsquo;re definitely not as hyper as some other cats.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They&rsquo;re not very vocal, but their meows are very gentle and chirp-like. They only meow when they need something and they&rsquo;re great at getting their point across. Generally, they love cuddles and spending time with their owners.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When searching for a cat to buy, most owners know exactly what traits they&rsquo;re looking for.
