5 Cat Breeds With 5 Different Personalities
Caleb Woods

Adopting a cat may seem easy as there are so many waiting for a new home, but did you know that their personalities differ slightly from breed to breed? All cats are sassy and all cats will want to love you when you're in the bathroom or on an important phone call, or even when you're in a deep sleep at 4 a.m.

The next time you visit the animal shelter, make sure you've read up on personality traits of common cat breeds that you can expect to see when you visit.

Check out these following fluffballs and see which one you match with!

1. Charles

Charles is a Persian kitty. He spends his day lounging on the window sill and watching the birds fly by. He enjoys watching Planet Earth and Chef's Table on Netflix as he is a peaceful and quiet man. When his owner gets home from work, he meows once and only once to remind them he loves them but mostly because he's ready to be fed his grain-free salmon formula cat food.

2. Samuel

Samuel is a shorthair Ocicat breed. Each spot on his furry body represents each 5k marathon he has run in his Brooklyn apartment. Since Sam is pretty athletic, he likes to join his owner at the gym where he concentrates on his biceps. Sam likes to look good for the ladies, or men. His owner still doesn't know what type of fluff he gravitates toward. If an active and social kitty is for you, then check out the Ocicat life.

3. Delilah

Delilah is a ragdoll cat who spends her days napping on the couch and playing with her toys while lying down. Because she's not the most active kitty, she likes to show her affection by laying on top of her owner's face while they are trying to sleep. Sometimes she does this so that she can be fed her special chicken formula breakfast at her favorite breakfast time, 5 a.m. If you're looking for a cat that prefers napping over anything else, then Delilah might just be the right cat for you.

4. Luna

Luna is a Siamese cat who expresses her many needs with an abundance of meows. When she's hungry, she will follow you around, meowing until there is food in her bowl. After her freshly prepared shrimp formula feast, she will insist on finding a spot on your body to lay and purr, even if you're standing. She's a sassy bundle of hair but with enough bonding, she can become your best friend.

5. Emily

Emily is a British Shorthair kitty who enjoys being around people. Whenever her owner has guests over, she shows her appreciation by rubbing her chubby body on every human she can. She makes up for the lack of meowing with an overload of purring. Sometimes, her owner uses her as a white noise machine when she has trouble falling asleep at night. If you have trouble falling asleep at night, consider adopting an Emily.


Whether you're a Delilah or a Samuel, or even an Emily, it's important to read up on cat breeds so you can find the right match for you.

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

Happy Birthday Cake

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.
