Hello: I have never owned a cat but my husband and I are thinking of buying a kitten. One big concern I have is shedding. Is there a breed that does not shed or sheds less than others?? Thanks!!
Yup. I was going to say that I don't know as much about cats as some on here, but with my own, the short-haired ones shed much more than the ones with medium to long hair. Seems counterintuitive, but there you have it.Originally Posted by sharky
I beleive Sphynx cats dont shed but they also dont have fur...
Longhairs tend to shed less but they often shed in clumps...
The better the food you feed with a high omega 6 the less the kitty will shed
Ragdolls are supposed to be low shedding, but I'm not sure if that's true. I have 2 Ragdolls & the do shed a good bit, but I don't have anything to compare to. I guess they may shed less than some cats, but all I know is that I sure vacuum up a lot of fur! My domestic short hair tabby is the one that sheds the least... or maybe I just don't see her fur as much as the long white hair of the Ragdolls & RagaMuffins?Originally Posted by taralynn0930
