I want a cat that is effectionate but also lazy so it doesnt trash my place when im at work.

It will be a indoor house cat too, also what sex would be easier?

Do you need to get indoor cats desexed?

Most are normal types, but some are fire or dark, too. Probably steer clear of the fire ones as they might burn your house down.

EDIT: I'm sorry, I actually love cats. But the temptation, man. The temptation. It was real.

To the third question; yes.

If its a male it will spray the furniture if hes not fixed.

If its a female shell have periods and bleed on everything if shes not fixed.

Male cats are better tempered and better behaved, but get him fixed at a young age before they have the instinct to spray. Maine Coons get large, but they are super chill and great cats. They require a bit of grooming, persistent brushing a couple times a week won't require an actual groomer visit. Ragdolls are cool too, but can be energy balls.

Bengals are wild, and high energy, I wouldn't go for that. They have a tad bit of that wild cat instinct, will climb and jump on a lot of stuff.

I had a cat who was part Maine Coon, and she was just the best ever. Anything on 4 legs smaller than a deer was dead, but she loved humans and was both intelligent and personable.

I had a manx who recently passed. He lived for a good 21 years and was the most friendly cat ever - he would never leave my side.

When I am ready for another cat, I will be getting another manx.

A cat is a cat.

Just get one from the shelter, older female if you're a first time cat owner. Kittens are hard asf to take care of, also 1+ year old cats need a home more

I disagree with this entire post. Kittens are litter box trained from the get go, they get into stuff but are easy to pick up and move. Saying a cat is a cat is saying like a golden retriever is like a chihuahua, there are vast differences in personality and affection between different breeds. Some are smarter, some are dumb. Some are playful, some are solitary. Some like to hunt, some are lazy.

Mutt refers to a mixed breed, cats can be mutts too

There's not a real name for a mixed breed cat so mutt works

Maine coon or ragdoll.

My cat is a mix of those and maybe bobcat. She growls just like a bobcat does, she thinks she's this big cat when she looks like a kitten despite her being 8 years old.

scottish folds are one of those breeds that look cute but are horribly unhealthy. dont support scottish fold breeding, thats animal abuse

anyway, there isnt really a particular breed thats prone to affection. any cat can be affectionate, and any cat can be standoffish and hand-shy

if youre looking at getting a kitten, you should get two. a singular kitten at home alone might develop behavioral problems and might tear up your stuff. two kittens at home always have each other to play with, as well as socialize each other. try to find a pair of kittens that already know each other and are bonded instead of just grabbing two random ones and shoving them together

yeah, its one of those cases where its like, most people dont actually know how bad it is
they are cute and thats what attracts people to them but its definitely a breed that needs to cease because its just wrong to keep a cat in pain like that just cause theyre cute

Most people would call him a Siamese.. Or a Burmese.. Or a Thai Cat.

I generally just call him a Siamese to make things easy.
