Is Your Cat a British Shorthair or Just Chonky?
Ever stared at your cat and wondered if it’s secretly British royalty? Here’s how to tell if you’ve got a legit British Shorthair or just a very round imposter.
First, check the face: chipmunk cheeks, round head, and a neck so thick it looks like it skipped leg day for neck day. Ears? Short and round. Eyes? Big, copper, and judging you. The body is stocky, with legs like little tree trunks and a tail that’s basically a plush baton.
Coat’s gotta be short, dense, and plush—think luxury bathmat. Color? Usually blue-gray, but honestly, they come in every shade of cat.
Behavior-wise, these cats are chill. Like, “I’ll just sit here and judge you from afar” chill. Don’t even try to pick them up—they’ll act like you’ve committed a crime.
Still not sure? DNA test. Or just accept you have a majestic loaf.
