Purebreds..and why?

I like all cats and have no real preference; Jasmine was our only planned cat because Shane loves Tonkinese and the others just happened to come home with us :)

We have some beautiful grey and silver tabbies in our street, and I met two beautiful neighbourhood torties the other night.

If we had more cats, I'd love an orange cat, a Scottish fold, a Russian blue, another orange cat, a grey and white cat, Jen's Lucas ;), a Bengal, a Bombay, a white cat and I've seen some stunning snowshoe meezers on COTD, oh, and an orange cat :) I adore Abys, but they seem too smart for me!!!

In the futer I would like to own a persian, but I think I would stick to shelter animals...but you never know

You can always get a shelter persian!!!!:)

Ripley is a Maine Coon mix and that's close enough to purebred for me. I'd love to have a Russian blue mix or just look a like and I think Havana Browns are gorgeous. I'll probably just go for whatever shelter cat 'calls' to me.

My husband says when Ripley is gone he wants another Maine Coon mix because he likes having a big cat he can rough house with.

Blueberry is a purebred Persian:) We got him from a breeder. Before we got a cat, we didn't really consider getting a cat from a shelter. My mom loved Persians, so that's why we got one:D They are my favorite breed of cats too:)

I think that in the future, I would probably still buy from a breeder for Persians...if I'm gonna get more cats in the future. But I will also get from the shelter too.

i just love my mutt cats :p

I would like a Bombay cat

Thats True! :D

I LOVE my muttcat. I hope that my next cat will be either a calico or a black kitty.
But if I ever got a purebreed I love the Abys and the Japanese Bobtail. And I fell in LOVE with a persian boy at the cat show last fall. He was so laid back he just melted into my arms. I also like the Snowshoes and the Ragdolls.

If it have 4 legs, fur goes meow, thats my breed. Heck, even if It have 3 legs and can't meow, I'll take it.

But I would give anything for a Bengal, I just love them. I just never see Bengals at the shelters and thats the only way I'd do it. Rescue or gift thats the only way. Anyone what to give me a Bengal? Good loving home just waiting. ;) ;) :D

Well I want MooShoo :) Such a pretty kitty!!!!! But since i cant have him lol, I would like a Irish fold or a rag doll, But I would never trade my Mutts in lol :D

We have a Maine Coon mix (Noah) and a Fawn Aby (Micah)...both were rescues.

All I can say is that I know God brought Micah and I together. Most people would see him at the shelter and want him because he's a "pure bred"...I don't think most people would love him for who he is inside (medical issues and all), but for his outside and title. I shuddered each time I saw the look in people's eyes when they saw him...I can only imagine if he'd even be alive if one of those people were allowed to adopt him. :eek:

I will always, always have an Aby...they are amazing cats. :)

As far as wanting a breed of cat...there are a ton of breed specific rescue organizations. :)
