As time goes by, cats continue to evolve, their breeds are becoming increasingly diverse, and their characteristics are becoming more and more diverse. Here, collect some more common or special cat breeds, starting from the characteristics of the cat and some precautions, so that all poop shovelers can have a deeper understanding of the cat. Everyone is welcome to have friendly discussions!

The cat has a round head, wide cheeks, beautiful marks on the hair, the fur on the neck and abdomen are grayish-white, and the hair on the other parts of the body is black and gray stripes, shaped like tiger skin, and the hair is short and bright and smooth. Smart and spiritual, and very good at catching mice. Tabby cats are independent, lively and active, and are very sensitive to changes in their surroundings. Adult Tabby cats do not like to play with people, but they will always appear within the eyesight range. If you like implicit, confident and loyal cats, then the tabby cat will not disappoint you.

5. Characteristics and precautions of different cats: It is a world-famous shorthair cat and a representative breed of shorthair cats. The race is native to Siam (now Thailand), hence the name Siam cat.

Features: It is that it has no hair, and you don’t have to worry about hair loss. It is a cat breed bred in Canada and is specially bred for cat lovers who are allergic to cat hair. This cat is caused by natural genetic mutations. Except for some thin and soft fetal hairs in the ears, mouth, nose, front section of the tail, feet, etc., the other parts of the body are hairless and have many wrinkles and elastic skin. Canadian hairless cats are gentle, independent, and non-aggressive, and can get along with other cats and dogs. (I really can't appreciate it. It feels like the ugliest cats and the characteristics and precautions of different cats)
Notes: Because they are hairless, they are afraid of both cold and heat, and the room temperature is below 10 degrees, they may freeze to death. In winter, they need to add clothes to cover their bodies to keep warm, and in summer, they need to apply sunscreen to avoid sunburn.
11. Russian Blue Cat

Precautions: I am afraid of being a child, unwilling to go out, and I like to be alone, so when the shoveler is too intimate with it, it will put inexplicable pressure on it and be alienated by it.
12. Jinjira cat

He is smart by nature, smart and gentle, and has a beautiful voice.
Notes: They have a bad temper, are particularly irritable, and will lose their temper inexplicably. When they are in a bad mood, they will attack humans. Therefore, many people think that they are an unfamiliar "eyed wolf" and take a long time to cultivate their feelings.
Tea cup cat (a cat with a genetic defect that cannot grow up is not a breed of cat, but is just a special one, so I will write it at the end without numerical ordering.)
Features: The tea cup cat is a small mini cat, also known as a mini cat, which is like a teacup size cat, and can even be placed in a teacup. Teacup cats are miniature cats, usually only 1/3 to 1/2 of the size of ordinary cats. Due to the genetic defect problem that has not been solved during the breeding process, the lifespan is relatively short. It has not been recognized internationally, but is just a small kitten. It is not a precious variety, nor is it recognized by professional institutions. There is no wild distribution, mainly distributed around the world, and its living habits are the same as those of domestic cats because they are small and cute.
Precautions: Because your lifespan is relatively short, you must be mentally prepared when raising it. Moreover, because of genetic defects, your physical condition is relatively poor and you are prone to illness.
No matter what kind of cat, you must first understand the specific situation before raising it. Once you finally decide to raise it, you must persist and do not abandon it easily. The above only lists some more famous and special cats. If there are other cats with great personality, all the cat owners are welcome to leave a message and discuss in kindness.
