The easygoing all-rounder of family cats.
The American Shorthair is a hardy, well-balanced working cat descended from cats brought to North America by early European settlers. Bred for health and a good mouser's instincts, it is adaptable, even-tempered and famously low-maintenance.
American Shorthairs are the definition of a balanced pet — friendly but not clingy, playful but not hyper, and tolerant of children, dogs and busy households. They keep a working cat's curiosity and enjoy interactive play, yet are happy to entertain themselves.

The dense coat needs only weekly brushing, increasing a little during seasonal sheds. The breed is robust and long-lived, but its relaxed nature means weight can creep up, so portion control and play matter for keeping them trim.
