The American Shorthair
Looking for a cat that will be a gentle companion, a playmatefor your children,
and a full-fledged member of the family? Look no further than the American Shorthair.
This breed is known for its longevity, robust health, good looks, quiet disposition and
amiability with children and dogs.
The American Shorthair is America's own breed, whose ancestors came to North America with
early settlers from Europe. Records indicate that the Mayflower carried several cats to hunt
ship's rats. For centuries, working cats flourished along with their pioneer owners and
eventually established themselves as the native North American shorthaired cat. Their beauty
and loving nature came to be valued as much as their rat-catching skills
