There is no single "best" cat breed — but there is a best match for your living situation, schedule and budget. Answer the questions below; we'll match you to three breeds with the closest profile.

1. Where do you live?

2. How long are you away from home on a typical weekday?

3. Children or other pets at home?

4. How much grooming time will you commit weekly?

5. Monthly budget for the cat (food + insurance + sundries)?

Tip: read the full breed guide before committing. Match scores are a starting point, not a final answer. Adoption shelters frequently have moggies whose temperament matches any pedigree result here.
