Hello everyone! What a wonderful forum. I'm so grateful to have stumbled on it. There's so much I want to ask, but this as I said is my first time so I'll make it fairly short.
My husband and I just lost our 15 year old Soft Coated Wheaten Terrier and now need to fill this huge hole in our hearts. After taking 3 different tests on the internet to find which breed of cats would be compatible with our life style the results came back as 1. American Shorthair, 2. Bombay, 3. British Shorthair and 4. Snowshoe. I think I've decided on the ASH, but nothing is etched in stone as yet. I would really welcome any and all recommendations as to which breeds you have had experiences with.....and yes I have considered and do have a rescue cat that visits and may do one of each.
We live in a very remote but beautiful coastal area of California and it's almost impossible for me to get to shows to see the various breeds so I'm doing all this via the computer. I've been in contact with some wonderful breeders, but think I need some non-breeder comments as well.
Thanks all for your input and if I don't get back to all personally please know I really appreciate your opinions.
