Thanks Owlie and indysteel! I'll have to see if I can find that episode with the Brits.

British Shorthairs are awesome cats. I fell in love with their look and personality. Tiger is my second. I unexpectedly lost my girl in my profile pic. She was a top quality show cat. Thanks to her, I went to my first cat show and have become a crazy cat lady

I got both of my Brits as adults. While I do advocate shelter pets (and have another cat from a shelter), I have enjoyed having "retired" pedigreed cats. If you like a particular breed, this is a great way to get a quality cat with a known history at a much lower price.

For those of you who do like cats, I do have a regular crazy cat lady blog at http://www.houseofmeow.com

Lol, it's how I keep myself busy during this snowy season as I eagerly await reuniting with my road bike.
