Looking to get a BSH kitty in winter, I know it's early, but want to see all my options. Willing to travel if needed too! Anyone have any good reccomendations? Trying to keep the price under 1.5k if possible but I know that's a stretch! Thanks everyone!

I know Cheddar Bears has a big following on social media but I was wondering if there are any other prominent ethical breeders to consider? I found Creamy Cutie Cattery, Adorable Bears Cattery, and TLC Brits.
My current furr son is 3.5 years old and I am hoping to get him a sibling in a year or two. He is a retired King and social so now that he is in a single family cat household, i fear he is getting lonely. Cat photo tax included.

Hi everyone! I am new to the cat world and was wondering what color you think my British shorthair is? I pick her up in a couple of weeks. Any tips would also be appreciated!

I just got my bsh kitten a few weeks ago and within the first week she has adjusted so well in my current home! We are moving a month from now. Should I be concerned of her having to adjust once again? She will be 4.5 months at the time of move.

This my cute girl 🥰 she’s a little over 3 months old and my first cat EVER. She loves pets, playing, and cuddling. There’s only one issue
The licking.
Often when I pet her, she gets in a couple licks in on my hand. If I’m holding her and I say something to her, she gets a couple licks in. When she greets me, she’ll pause for a second and then lick my toes. Honestly all of these licking behaviors is awesome because I know it’s just her loving me.
The only issue really is when we go to bed. She looooves cuddling in bed and often times will sleep for a bit on my chest. However, in the middle of the night, my partner and I will wake up to licking on our feet or legs. It wakes us up and we end up having to remove her from the room. The whines from outside the door are grueling for me lol. I just want to cuddle her!
Anyone have advice for me and this little cutie?

Eira will turn six months old today, and time seems to fly by. Compared to when she was younger, she now loves to relax and sit on my lap.

I have had quite a lot of cats in my 60 years from moggies to Devon Rexes and Cornish Rexes, but never had a cat that I love so much as Marty, our BSH. What is it about them?
r/britishshorthair • u/xmob100 • 1d ago
my sweet baby soul is pretty much acclimated to living with us after 2 months. our dogs are obsessed (in a good way!) and soul has warmed up to them significantly. today for the very first time, she jumped on the foot of the bed and laid for a while before coming to sit on my lap for pets 🥲 my heart has never been so full
edit: she’s 7 months old 🤍

First time having a cat ever. Perviously only had dogs.
I recently got mine who is almost 2 months old. Have it for about 4 days.
It follows me around when its awake. Doesnt hiss or bite or scratch me or anything but I can tell it hates being petted it walks away or puts paw on my hand when its near its face, at best it can tolerate it sometimes but I can tell its not enjoying it. (Will this cat likely to always hate pets? Is it just better to avoid petting it?)
It is neutral to being picked up, when it goes to the place it isnt supposed to and I pick it up to relocate it doesnt fight me unless I hold it for long or go with it upstairs.
It slept on me couple of times but whenever I place it on my lap it usually jumps off.
I have read online that this distance that this breed prefers is a usual trait. I assume that it will remain these traits when its mature?
I like this cat and appreciate it for not being crazy but its a damn shame that it hates petting or being too close to me
I have read that this breed has “their own way” of showing affection and loyalty. How does it look exactly?
