About British Shorthairs

The Governing Council of the Cat Fancy (GCCF), which registers pedigree cats in the UK, says "half of all kittens registered with the GCCF each year are British Shorthairs, making the British the most popular pedigree cat in the UK." It sums up the breed's temperament as "patient, tolerant and a bit lazy", and calls the British "calm and easygoing".

Can I get a free British Shorthair to a good home in Torridge, or one under £100?

Usually not from a rescue: each asks an adoption fee towards neutering, microchipping and vaccinations, and a "free to a good home" advert is a private one with no rescue checks behind it. Fees are set by each rescue: the profiles on Cardiff's British Shorthairs page show them.
