I have both long hair and short hair
I don't have a preference

I just kind of wound up with the ones i loved and bonded with -hair type didn't really have a factor. I do LOVE Isabella's coat though- it's gorgeous- she's a Turkish Angora- their fur is like cashmere and since they don't have an under coat- they rarely ever matt or require as much grooming as some other long haired breeds. Reguardless of coat size though- my furbabies get brushed/groomed daily


Isabella- long hair
Velvet- short hair
Jasmine- short hair
Abilene- short hair
Kojak- short hair

I have Radar, who is a shorthair with an extremely soft and fluffy coat with his thick winter trousers at the moment (he's shorthair on top and medium hair on his undercarriage right now!) and I have Sonic, who is an Oriental Shorthair and so has an ultra-short close-lying coat.

Well... with Dr. Claw's little issue with the fur pulling I have to put down that I've had all three.

I have to say, it really doesn't matter to me. I love them all just as they are.

Short long, bald, curly, I don't care, I love them all.
I prefer the looks of longhairs though, but the lower maintenence of shorthairs

Probably why I'm attracted to lower maint. longhairs like NFC, MC, Birman etc.

I like them both but I love shorthairs its just something about them. Especially shorthaired tabbies such as my girl and black cats. I guess there is a sleekness about it. But I truly love all cats.

I have both and love both long and short hair. I really can't decide which one I prefer.

I am so glad I re read this!! But I already voted...
I actually thought you meant our hair, not cats!!
Good grief....lol.

OK, so the vote was wrong....I like all of the above! But my cats are short and long hair

I like short hairs better. Easier to keep up with. But I think long haired kitties are beautiful.

I'm a short hair kind-of-gal! For cats that is. Less brushing maintenance. I'm just used to how they look with short hair. Just me, I guess.
I have long hair, and that's enough trouble as it is!

I prefer short hair...but that has nothing to do with which cats I would have...I couldn't help it if I fell in love with a long haired cat. Just the same as I wanted a male cat..but then I see this little beautiful Trout kitty and she starts purring immediately..I was no longer worried about whether I was getting a male or female. She was going to be mine


Any cat will do...to be honest though..not sure about hairless. I need some fur to cuddle in with.
