As a cat person, I think all cats are adorable with their tiny paws, soft kitten mews, and soothing purrs, but some breeds are especially cute and cuddly.

Some are large, small, fluffy, or sleek. Others have rare and unique features like short legs, folded ears, and stubby tails.

You can immediately recognize Munchkin cats because of their short legs, which are caused by a genetic mutation. Although they are short and stout, they are quite active.

They are also very loving and affectionate. Munchkin cats weigh between six and nine pounds, so they are adorably pocket-sized. They come in all colors and fur lengths, just like your regular domestic cat.

2. Ragdoll

Persian cats are one of the most popular breeds in North America, thanks to their elegant, flowing fur, flat faces, and gentle personalities.

They like to cuddle up at home in a calm environment with their family members. These fluffy furballs need frequent grooming, but it’s totally worth it! They usually weigh seven to 12 pounds.

5. Selkirk Rex

These kittens appear to belong to the Selkirk Rex breed, known for their curly, plush coats and round faces.

The Selkirk Rex looks almost like a stuffed animal with its rounded face and curly coat. The curly coat does require regular combing to maintain the teddy bear look and prevent matting and tangling.

These cats have a mild temperament and are generally easygoing. They get along well with children, other cats, and cat-friendly dogs. They typically weigh between six and 16 pounds.

6. American Bobtail

7. Manx

As the only breed that does not have a tail, the Manx is definitely a standout! However, missing a body part does not prevent it from being friendly and playful.
