The American Shorthair Cat
The American Shorthair cats have a quiet personality and are initially wary of humans. They can be very sociable with youngsters once they get adjusted to the environment. They play and have a lot of fun with the youngsters. They just require brushing twice a week, are highly healthy, have a powerful immune system, and can live for more than 20 years. These cats are ideal for first-time cat cats because they are easy-going, have a cool temperament, and are simple to train and care for. They come in over 80 different color patterns and can grow quite large. Males can reach a weight of more than 15 pounds, while females can reach a weight of more than 12 pounds when fully mature.
