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!!
Ragdolls don't shed as much as other breeds, but during spring they do a major shed of the winter coat. At other times, however, the shedding is minimal compared than other long and short hair breeds. Although, the Ragdoll is considered a long hair, their coats are more of a medium length. If shedding is a big concern, I am not sure if a Ragdoll would be the best choice. I would think what has been suggested with the sphynx or the rexes would be best for a extemely minimal or non shedding breed.Originally Posted by Yosemite

Ragdolls apparently don't shed a lot (if what I've been told is true) if shedding is a concern.
