Why you're a British Shorthair

You're affectionate, but on your own terms, thank you. You'd rather sit near your person than on them, watching the household with calm, round-eyed composure. You're independent, undemanding, and entirely self-possessed.

You're a chill, dignified presence who doesn't need constant fussing. You enjoy company without clinging and play in measured doses. A teddy-bear-faced cat with the unbothered air of an old gentleman who's seen it all.
