Sarah


British Shorthair – Melbourne

Hi there, it is with great sadness that my husband and I are looking to re-home our beautiful boys Ollie & Kobe. Ollie is the sweetest boy you’ll meet, he’s very vocal and loves a pat, he also loves to sit at the bench with you while you eat lunch & thrives off attention. Kobe is much more reserved, while being a sweet boy himself he definitely enjoys his alone time and isn’t that snuggly. He will look to Ollie for comfort when he’s unsure about a situation. They must be re-homed together as they’re so close. We’re looking for the right person to give them the love and attention they deserve, ideally kid free (they don’t love our toddler)

British Shorthair – Meadow Heights

Meet Smokey – A 3-Year-Old British Shorthair Looking for a New Home We are looking for a loving and patient home for Smokey, our handsome 3-year-old male British Shorthair cat. Smokey has been a part of our family since he was a kitten. His mother is a purebred British Shorthair, although we’re unsure of his father’s breed. He is desexed, affectionate, and enjoys spending time outdoors during the day. Smokey currently lives peacefully with his son, Chimney, in our home, and they share a lovely bond. However, with a baby and two other cats in the household, it has become difficult for us to manage and give him the attention he needs. A Few Things to Note: - Litter Box Issues: Smokey has occasionally been problematic with peeing inside. This behavior might improve in a new environment where he has more space or fewer competing pets. - Outdoor Access: Smokey is used to spending his days outdoors, which he enjoys immensely. A home where he can continue to have outdoor access would suit him well. - Peaceful Nature: Despite the challenges, Smokey is a gentle and affectionate cat who gets along well with other cats. He lives harmoniously with Chimney and has been a loving part of our family. Key Details: - Breed: British Shorthair (mother is purebred, father unknown) - Age: 3 years - Gender: Male - Desexed: Yes - Temperament: Gentle, affectionate, and outdoor-loving We’ve included pictures of Smokey to show just how adorable he is! We are looking for a caring, patient, and responsible family who can provide him with a loving home and help address his occasional litter box issues. If you’re interested in welcoming Smokey into your home, please reach out to us for more details.

The Ultimate British Blue Guide

About British Blue

British Blue cats, medium to large in stature, captivate with their blue-grey fur and calm demeanor. Though not as active as some breeds, they relish playtime and bonding with their owners.

Grooming

Grooming

The British Blue demands minimal grooming. A weekly brushing with a soft bristle brush maintains their coat, keeping it healthy and free of mats and tangles.

Origins

The British Shorthair has been bred in the United Kingdom since the early 1800s, believed to descend from Egyptian cats.

One theory posits that Egyptian cats arrived in Britain with the Romans in the first century AD, quickly gaining popularity as pets and working animals. Over time, these cats interbred with domestic breeds, leading to the modern British Blue.

In 1824, Harrison Weir initiated a selective breeding program, creating the British Blue, named for its distinctive blue-grey hue.

Despite facing a decline during World War II, the breed has since rebounded and now ranks as the most popular cat breed in Britain.

Key Characteristics Of British Blues

Are British Blues Family-Friendly?

Yes, British Blues typically bond well with kids, seniors, and other pets. Their gentle and affectionate nature makes them superb family pets. However, supervise young children around animals and introduce new pets gradually to ensure comfort for all.

 

Common Health Issues & Considerations

British Blues may suffer from:

Obesity

Diabetes

Gum disease

Nature / Temperament

Affectionate, Calm, Laid-back

Suitable Environment

British Blue cats thrive indoors, shielded from the weather and other dangers. They need access to a litter box, scratching post, and plenty of toys and playtime.

Other Considerations

● The British Blue is the oldest known European cat breed.

● Most British Blues possess a rare blood type for cats, either B or AB.

● A British Blue inspired the Cheshire Cat character in Lewis Carroll’s Alice in Wonderland.

How can I take good care of my British Blue?

Nutrition

British Blues need a diet rich in protein and fat, with ample taurine, an essential nutrient found in animal-based proteins like meat and fish. Since they don’t require much exercise, their diet doesn’t need to be high in calories. Give treats sparingly.

If feeding dry food, ensure they drink enough water, possibly using a cat fountain, as cats prefer flowing water and dry food provides little moisture.

Grooming

Though British Blues have a short coat requiring minimal grooming, regular brushing removes dead hair and keeps their coat healthy and shiny.

 

Exercise

While not particularly active, British Shorthair cats need some exercise to stay healthy. Provide a variety of toys and encourage running, jumping, and playing. Ensure there are plenty of places to hide and explore at home, and consider a cat tower.

 

Training

Training a British Blue mirrors training any other domestic cat. They need patient, consistent training to learn basic commands, tricks, and proper manners. Rewards-based positive reinforcement proves the most effective method for teaching desired behaviors.

This is general information and should not be relied on for adopting or purchasing advice.

Most Asked British Blue Questions

While British Blues are most famously a blue-grey colouring, they can come in a variety of colours including black, blue, white, red, cream and silver.

No, though the degree of allergens a cat produces depends on the individual cat’s skin and fur. Some British Blue cats may be less allergenic than other cats, but there is no guarantee that they will not cause an allergic reaction in some people.

If you are searching for British Blue kittens for sale, it’s important to only deal with reputable breeders. The average cost of British Blue kittens for sale will be between AUD $800 and $1500.
