Abyssinian Cats Photo Album
Although there are a number of theories about its origin, the history of the "Aby" is mired in the ages. That it is one of the oldest known breeds of cats lends credence to the assumption that it may have been an early offshoot of the African wildcat, ancestor of all domestic cats. These photos demonstrate that heritage.

American Shorthair Photo Album Index
If you are looking for a low maintenance cat, the American Shorthair is right up your alley. They are solidly built cats, descendants of ancestors who arrived from Europe with the early pioneers, and are full-fledged All-American cats, just as the descendants of those human pioneers are All-Americans today.

Balinese Cats Photo Album Index
Take a svelte, graceful Siamese cat, add a medium-long silky coat, and you have a Balinese. Every bit as lively as its shorthaired relative, the Balinese is equally affectionate without being as noisy. Here are a couple photos of these exquisite cats. More will be added as received.

British Shorthair Cats Photo Album Index
The British Shorthair is considered the oldest English breed, and in fact was the only cat to be shown as pedigreed at the first cat shows. Although blue is probably the most popular color, "Brits" come in many colors, as these photos will demonstrate

Chausie Cats Photo Album
Like the Bengal, the Chausie is a selectively bred cat using "wild" stock. While the Bengal comes from the Asian Leopard Cat (Felis bengalensis), the Chausie is the result of breeding a domestic cat with a Jungle Cat (Felis chaus). These photos demonstrate the remarkably different appearance of the Chausie, depending on color.

Scottish Fold Cats Photo Album Index
Scottish Fold cats are as sweet as their lovely faces promise. Folds may have straight or folded ears, both are used in breeding programs, and both are just as dear.
