How to Choose a Cat Breed
A 'pedigree' cat is one shaped by planned crosses and recognized by a registry—largely a commercial matter. Common breeds: American Shorthair (sturdy, calm), British Shorthair (round face, sweet), Chinese Li Hua (independent, a great mouser), Siamese (vocal, clever), Persian (long-haired, gentle), Exotic (flat face, prone to breathing/eye issues), Norwegian Forest and Maine Coon (large, adventurous, not ideal strictly indoors), and Ragdoll. Match temperament and your home to the cat, and beware breeds with known genetic problems.
