British shorthair cat black and white. The best known color is blue gray and the cats are sometimes referred to as british blues. The british shorthair was one of the parents of this breed which was originally known as the domestic shorthair. The original variant has a black red and white coat but any two colours as listed in the self colour section plus white are now accepted. The british shorthair originated from a common street cat once called the european shorthair.
The american shorthair cat was a working cat that was used to keep the rodent population under control. Both began as working cats and weren t appreciated as the special breeds they are for many years. Nose leather and paw pads. Pure white untipped with yellow.
Since this cat was meant to work it was bred to be hardy healthy and strong. The coat comes in just about any color or pattern you could wish for including lilac chocolate black white pointed tabby and many more. The oldest of these patterns is the handsome tri coloured tortie and white. I mainly breed colourpoints and the occasional self.
The shorthair does not reach full physical maturity until he is 3 to 5 years old. Deep sap phire blue gold or copper. Kittens are all lovingly home reared with children and are dog friendly. British shorthair colors white.
