Of my 65 years, I've had cats for a total of 55 years with continuous cohabitation for the past 41 years. In my experience, it's the stray kitties who are the cuddliest regardless of their breed. They know they've found their furrever home and are especially grateful. 😻
UPDATE: I rescued a kitten from the underside of a car a couple weeks ago. Little female I named Hope because she had been in a hopeless situation until I came along and changed that for her. She's #23.
Very well said and true.
You are right
All cats are very sincere
agreed, i am 47 and like you, i've always had a cat with me since childhood, currently have 5 at home and 2 at the office and they are all strays that have chosen me as their mother ❤
@@nikolata21 It's the best feeling when you know they chose _you!_
I have an American Short. He is so quiet. I heard him meow 2x. He's so sweet & he just stares at me and it's crazy but I can see the love in his eyes.
I rescued 2 eight week old half breeds (ragdoll mom and British shorthair dad) from a back yard breeder. I was very nervous initially for I really did not know what to expect personality and health wise. Honestly I don't want to jinx it but now at 5 months old I am truly thankful, actually I feel blessed that they came into my life when they did. Not only are they now true showstoppers looks wise but my 2 baby girls Sasha and Porsche (a) are truly truly gorgeous inside and out that I feel that I hit the jackpot. 😅
I just ❤️ cats. I have 2 male cats and I ❤them, so.❤❤❤🐈🐈
I have a Siamese cat, he very cuddly and playful. He so clingy too, he follows me everywhere
Siamese. I had 2, and they were so talkative. They would give me massages, and never tired of getting petted.
I adopted 2 Burmese from the same litter. One is solid black with 2 silver streaks, 1 by each ear. Even her paw pads are black. She is all mine, or I am all hers. The 2nd one is yellow and he adopted my husband. They are both highly intelligent and loving. No regrets here, just lots of love. 🐈⬛🐈❤❤❤❤
They have personalities like people too. Some are more affectionate than others but both my cats love different ways of being affectionate .If I’m upset, they always come and comfort me❤
I have been the proud owner of many siamese kitties over the years and have always enjoyed their companionship. Loyal, happy cuddly and smart.😊
I live with a Norwegian Forest cat. They super friendly and mine is even a lap cat.
I watched the video. No mention of the most awesome cat on Earth: The Russian Blue.
Oh can we talk?!. I have had to absolutely torrid love affair’s with Russian Blues….They are just the best
Agree; Have (had) two Russianblues and they are so loyal, intelligent, beautiful, but also the sassiest breed I have ever known. Just lost my male at 17 years old last April and miss him every day- his head butts, his demanding 10:00 pm bedtime, and hugging him. My female will be 18 in a couple of months and is my little prima donna. What a great breed! "Cats were worshipped in ancient Egypt and they have never forgotten this."
My cat was particularly special cuddle buddy. He wasn’t a breed…he was a special creation by G-d.
That's so heartwarming! It sounds like you had a truly special bond with your cat.
We had a Burmese cat named raindrop … Rainie for short … loved to sleep above our heads on our pillows so we had to adjust to less pillow and more purrs.
My cat loves to cuddle all the time 🥰
Hi I’m Russian Blue Nagi and surprised we’re not in this list. I’m very affectionate. 😻🐈⬛❤️
The ones Ive known were very bitey.
What? I have two Russian Blues, brothers, 3 years old. They’re sweet and playful. Good manners and like to play.
Wha'd'ya mean "cats aren't known for their cuddly nature"? I thought the whole point of why cats are man's REAL best friend is how cuddly and adorable little creatures they are!
Cats can definitely be cuddly and adorable! It just depends on the individual cat's personality and how they've been socialized. Some cats love cuddling while others prefer their personal space. It's all about finding the right balance!
Every persian I've ever met has been mean as hell, lol. The like their one person.
@@marylind1144I lived in a lady’s house for a summer, taking care of her Persian and Himalayan while she and her husband were gone for the summer. The Persian, who was supposed to be really nice, ignored me except for when I tried to brush her -then she’d run and hide! The Himalayan, who was supposed to be aloof, loved me and I loved him. When I got home from work, he’d greet me and
I’d brush him and play with him. That was our routine. I still miss him...
I have a shorthair black cat - the pound said she was a "York Chocie" but effectively a black cat with slightly longer than shorthair and when she stretches out her brown undercoat in the sun is chocolatey. Anyways she's a "Don't put me down" type and loves extended on the lap purr and pet periods. She was a stray the first 6 months of her life so its not spoiled kitten syndrome. She'll cuddle, loves to be "Shoulder Cat" where she rests her chest on my chest and her head and forelimbs are on the shoulder.
Frankly most pets will cling to anyone who regularly give them comfort and a meal, even abused ones/neglected ones once trust is built up. The latter save the worst case (like fighting dogs, extremely hurt animals) it's a day or so. Food. Meals. They pee or chew on something and the owner doesn't get a stick and beat them but talks nice to them.
So consider rescuing a stray's life. They tend to be wonderful mixes of various "Purebreeds" but the harsh life of the feral ones weeds out the genetic defects along with breeding with them that the big $ ones have. Most of the time you'll get a smart, affectionate and wonderful pet for the cost of adopting and minimal things.
I have had many different cats, all mixed breeds. My favorite was just a black cat who loved both me and my husband, even now, he's passed.😢
I have never gotten a pure bred cat in my life. We always rescued our cats from shelters, and one even right off the street. Of all the cats I've ever had, only 1 was not affectionate, and that one was a very long story. While some breeds can be somewhat more predictably social or sweet, my experience is that few cats of any breed or lack thereof are super aloof and uninterested in cuddles. If a cat is socialized properly, they will almost always be loving and affectionate. Of course, when cats are pure bred, they get the socialization with humans and other cats from birth, so of course they're going to be well-adjusted, trusting, and affectionate. Yes, some cats might choose a favorite person or couple of people to be super loving to and be a bit more standoffish with others, but you're far more likely to encounter aloofness from previous strays and shelter cats with a less than fortunate beginning. Still, that being said, nearly all of our shelter cats have been very loving and sweet. Even our feral little road baby is a now lap-seeking cuddle bug and sleeps nestled between my husband and me every night. All in all, the key is respecting their boundaries and developing an understanding of how they like to receive affection. If you don't force it and you let them come to you, you'll find most cats quite receptive to love and connection.
Burmese, your conclusions might be under estimated. I love the breed so much I was foolish enough to adopt 4 of them. They are beyond affectionate. My experience for the past 11 years has been 3 things I love and are more than I expected. Affectionate is more like clingy, they talk all the time and mine like to take turns demanding to be cuddled, played with and yes hold some uncanny conversations. Oh they also tend to watch, observe and follow their humans regularly. They also dislike it when I leave the house. If you adopt one don't expect to do anything without their observation, even using the bathroom. ❤
my black cat is so loving!
My tortie is the most affectionate kitty I’ve ever had. She even loves my husband and has converted him! Lol
I have a Siberian cat and she is the most lovable cat. She is always right there with me no matter what I am doing. Love's to lay by me all the time.
I have always been a dog person. I got my first cat and fell madly in love with him more than any boyfriend or family member in my life. I have to rehome him after 4 weeks and cried non stop for 2 days. I was glad to grieve that intensely as it helped the loss.
I'm sorry to hear about your cat. It's never easy to say goodbye to a beloved pet.
I have identical twin Bombay's and they are wonderful. I also love my tuxedo cat though she is tenacious.
I have a Siamese cat. She is beautiful! We got her as a kitten, but it took a long time for her to actually be cuddly. She finally became cuddly with my husband. After he died, she eventually started warming up to me. She will cuddle up with me when I sit down to relax in the evening. And now she has started getting in bed me, but she stays mostly near my feet. But she will only cuddle when she decides to. If I try to pick her up, she will try to get away quickly! But I love her!
My Siamese is the most devoted cat I have ever seen .
Love your video! I’ve had seven Ragdolls over the years - now down to one. And yes, they are very cuddly, follow me everywhere and climb onto my knee or into my bed as soon as I settle down! Love them dearly!
Tough to out cats in groups. We’ve two Ragdolls and one was the stereotypical Ragdoll, you could pick him up and do whatever you wanted with him. Very social, he loved everyone. The other, who was about a year older, is the alpha male in our house. My wife and I are about the only ones he will tolerate being picked up and he only allows you to pick him up a certain way. He’s sitting waiting on me to get home from work, and if I don’t spend 10-15 minutes talking to him and brushing he gets really testy. Fascinating creatures.
My cat is so affectionate I've never even known a dog who has wanted to be so close to me, when my hand is beginning to stroke her head she almost pushes my hand to make that stroke so very long and as much force as I can muster. Then I look down and notice she's put the top of her head on top of my foot, her whole body moved around so she can show me how close she wants to be. I've had her since she was 10 to 12 weeks old as a feral kitten. She's always been scared of loud noises or anyone new. But she is the most important person in my life. She follows me everywhere I go.
Your cat sounds absolutely precious! It's amazing how animals can become such important parts of our lives.
My dark seal point Siamese cat is super affectionate. Loves him.
The individual is more important than the breed.
Absolutely! Each dog has its own unique personality and needs, regardless of the breed. It's important to focus on the individual characteristics and find the perfect match for you and your lifestyle.
I also love siberian forrest cats they are so gentle with young kids and so empathetic!
I have a chartreux, he's very cuddly and beautiful!
I love cats.
OMG I am melting ! 🫠
I am 73 and have never had a cat that wasn't affectionate. It is all about how you treat them and raise them. Nothing aloof about any cat I have had. Of course, I tend to spoil them just a little. LOL
That's wonderful to hear that your cats have all been so affectionate! It truly shows the bond you've built with them.
I thought I wanted an Abyssinian once, just because their coats are so beautiful, but when I looked into their purrsonalities I decided they weren’t for me. Like you said, they are high energy & very smart. I wasn’t up for the amount of work needed to keep their minds active so they wouldn’t get into constant mischief, lol. Also, all the literature I read said that they were not cuddly. They liked to be in the same room with their people, but were rarely lap cats.
My great aunt had a Persian cat when I was small & I never met a nastier tempered cat! I seemed to recall he was good w/her, but nobody else should dare get close if they valued their skin, lol. So he colored my perception of all Persians & as I’ve grown older, I have developed a distaste for flat faced animals, cat or dog & don’t think breeders should be encouraged to strive for such deformations. Just my opinion!
I’ve been owned by traditional Siamese cats most of my life. I’ve had Seal points, Blue, Lynx & flame points & they’ve all been affectionate from time to time, but always on their own time. None of them could be forced to sit in my lap. I think that is just the nature of all cats. It has to be their idea, lol!
My Maddie is an Abbyssinian. She's very cuddly and playful. She's a very intelligent kitty
ALL Cats are very sincere
I need a service cat.. ( I get anxiety once or twice a week) but I sam going to do rescue so whichever God puts before me.. will be the cat (s) I adopt
My brother rescued a little black female cat. Before he could get her fixed she had a litter. He asked me to take a male and female to live with me out in the country. I did and noticed how sweet and clingy they were. I did some research and discovered they were a Bombay mix-breed. Check them out on CZcams. I love all cats but Bombays are truly something extra special. Also, I suffer from PTSD and these cats have been a Godsend. Peace my brother 😊
Can definitely vouch for the Burmese being the most cuddly and loving cats ever! You definitely need two though!
Yeah, our cousin’s cat might be a burmese and he gets bored often so definitely think two cats woulda been a better idea, but he isn’t as cuddly and more independent (maybe he’s just like that with us cuz we are just taking care of him for the time being)
I have learned you can NOT depend on a certain breed to provide the affection you desire; it truly is about the individual cat, so you ALWAYS run the risk that a cat will no be what you had hoped. My experience is that most of my cats have been very aloof and distant, and breeds, gender, etc. made no significant difference.
I concurr, muttsor lack of specific breed makes no difference, each cathas its own individuality.
Chartreuse or Scottish Fold my favs!
its amazing thank u
I have a former community cat adopted last Sept. He is very affectionate on his terms but doesn't like to be picked up or held. Every day it gets better. He doesn't want to go outside❤
They say a Russian Blue is independent. Mine attaches to me all the time, and follows me around the house. The moment I sit down, he’s there ready to lay on my lap 😊
I have a siamese, rag doll mix. Perfect combination. Both made this list. She is always with me.
We have a Turkish Angora who we found as a stray. We never found his owner, so just adopted him. He is an escape artist. We figured he got out and was lost. We have had him about 6 years. Very affectionate. Love visitors.
My Siamese is very loving and very vocal.
Where is the Manx?
My Persian is affectionate. Also my British longhair Is very affectionate & playful
I have always had cats and as kid we had barn cats and they were cuddy cats
You want Velcro. I’m your cat. I am Bombay…………
Thanks for watching! I'm glad you enjoyed the video.
We had two part Siamese siblings kittens years ago who were pretty affectionate and fun loving happy cats. A brother and sister. We also had a tuxedo (not related to them) that we got a year later. He was really affectionate with me but I've always been really sweet to him especially since he seemed to be left out a bit more than the other cats I thought.
The older cats welcomed him into the family pretty well but the girl cat was mine and the boy cat was my mom's and they both got jealous and defensive when we tried to let the tuxedo in our rooms. They did not mind him at all in the house and would let him steal their food. But when that happened we would give them more food so they knew they would never go hungry. I would try to give him extra attention but then my cat disappeared one day in our new neighborhood a year after we moved, he pretty much became mine. But there were some crazy people in my neighborhood who stole cats and all three cats disappeared over a period of 6 years. And my last cat I got during covid was ran over by some reckless speeders so we haven't had cats since. And probably never will in this house. Hopefully I will soon again in my new house. I sure miss having pets.
I'd like another Siamese, particularly a Snowshoe Siamese. I rescued mine from a shelter and we shared 18+ years together. He was the love of my life and sometimes I can't wait to cross the Rainbow Bridge to see him (and all the others) again.
My beautiful Angora was the cuddliest, most affectionate cat ever.
I have a Sokoke. She will not leave me alone - on my lap, my book, my feet, my pillow; even on the seat behind me on the loo. Typically she lies sloping head downwards 'playing dead'.
I believe in rescuing fur babies. So many need homes. Please save them. ♥️♥️♥️
My siamese was rescued from a kill shelter and she's just the best cat ever.....an# she deff loves her snuggles
It was confusing to see tabbies and Bengals mixed in with some of the breeds talked about. I've got a rescued stray who won my heart because he walked into my home and asked to be picked up. When I did pick him up, he wrapped his paws around my neck and hung on for dear life. It'll be one year next month. His estimated age was 3 years, probably a March kitten, so he'll turn a year older right after our anniversary of when he first walked in. I don't know what breed he is. The veterinarian listed him as domestic shorthair, and I'm guessing American, not British. But he looks similar to the chartreuse kitties in this video... Except I'm not sure if those video samples showed actual chartreuse or just random stock footage cats.
I know right? not a very good job of editing....and quite frankly I think this is all a bunch of hooey......
Also orange tabbies. Extremely friendly
Abbysinian is a wonderful breed. Lovvvved all of them. I am looking for another one or two to add to my cat family.
Study the Bombay
They forgot Himalayan cats !
I have a scottish fold , he is the absolute best !!!!! ❤❤❤
You missd he Siberian.
……indeed, these are my favorite❣️
It takes time for a cat to trust you. I rescued a feral tabby kitten. It took three years of pure love, but she's now like a lap dog. Grant any cat its dignity and love it, and it will come around.
I had a pair of Sphynx. They are all that and more. Cornish Rex are quite similar in temperament. I currently have one of those. And I have a Balinese. Also a “kangaroo kitty” that is a DSH.
I have a 4 year old sphynx, he is a true cuddle bug and a mommys boy! I have had many different cat breeds but I have to say that without a doubt the sphynx is very uniqe. Mine hates being alone but we have an american hairless terrier too they are best friends. And I am at home for the most of the time. Even though he is 4 years old he is enegetic and playful like a kitten.
I'm genuinely worried I might someday adopt the perfectly cuddly and affectionate lap catwho reads minds. The cat is a Rag doll/Munchkin with blue eyes and she turns out to be so cute it causes me physically explode the first time we head-butt.
My Maddie is an Abbyssinian, and she's the most cuddly cat I've ever had
I have a Siamese Ragdoll mix and everything they said about both is true. She has a combination of traits of each, which can be a bit much at times being how smart they are but it is also what I love most about her. I adore her and all her demands. 😹💜
I have the same mix, also a female. She loves to get her face right into my face at night. Very loving. I feel bad though as she is the only cat (I also have a dog). He goes to doggy day care while I work so she is home alone. She is waiting for me and rolling on the floor when I come in. I think she's lonely when I'm gone. I make up for it when I return.
@@wisdanielAww how sweet. We had a dog who passed away about a year ago so I feel bad she doesn’t have a friend either. I’m sure your girl is okay as long as you and the woofie return home not too late and of course keep your weekends or days off worshiping her. Pearl is mine in the photo. What is your girl’s name?
@@queencatlady My girl is Rue.
The most affectionate cats would be cats that are rescued from horrendous living conditions. Why does it have to be a particular breed? There are tens of thousands of cats looking for a loving home. Why do people need a particular breed? Isn’t it about love? What cat could love more than a grateful cat!??
Thank you! I just took in two homeless kittens. I had never had a cat before, always a dog person. One runs from me always but when I catch him he will allow me to hold and cuddle him for a long time. . I always let him down when he starts squirming. The other one always allows me to pet him and follows me around but doesn't want to be held at all, so I don't. I've had them for a couple months and absolutely adore them. I knew nothing about cats but with the good and the bad I wouldn't trade them for anything.
I understand what you mean bro, but cats are not humans, they are driven by instinct and don't have critical thinking ,they have different temperaments, a cat doesn't understand or comprehend what gratefulness is.
Different purebreds will behave differently and some are more affectionate than others. In a perfect world all these cats would have a nice home, but too many people adopt them only to give them away later, or let their cats have too many kittens without thinking who is going to look after those kittens and it sucks
My orange and white tabby kitty is a sweet boy very cute and loving
In my experience, siamese are the most affectionate but all cat breeds are affectionate towards me so i want to say all breeds but there have been a few stand offish cats but that was more indicative of the environment they were in before i met them rather than based on the breed
ahhh. all this scientific efficiency and analysis..... just give me a mixed breed ally cat any time of the week....
I love all ten breeds of cats😸😸😸
10. Abbyssinian
9. Ragdoll
8. Persian
7. Burmese
6. Chartreux
5. Exotic Shorthair
4. Maine Coon
3. Scottish Fold
2. Siamese
1. Sphynx
Devon Rex has my vote.
The only downside of the rag doll I’d say is that they pinpoint one particular owner. I used to have a rag doll and and the it ONLY liked me, apparently this is a thing with their breed that I found from later research. They MAY pick one person and gravitate towards them. He acted terrified of everyone except me lol a lot of hurt feelings from family and friends, I never forced him to socialize though
I've owned 3 Ragdolls and mine never showed disdain for others. The latter two were like velcro cats, always stuck to my side or whatever room I'm in.
All cats will love you back if you show them kindness and care ❤ Still, I'm very partial to the Chartreaux , having cared for one for almost 15 years until it passed some six months ago. Some day, when my family gets over his passing, we will have a Chartreaux again and another kitty, a rescue.
Cats truly have a special place in our hearts, and they give so much love in return. It's wonderful to hear about your connection with the Chartreaux breed.
Know any breeders out West??
@@Z8Q8
No, sorry, no.
I'll take the Sphinx if the cute guy comes with it
Im so confused about getting a cat and the scottish fold cat and the siamese cat were my favorite and i was wondering if i can get the two of them
My siamese cat isn't as chatty and is also pure white.
It's interesting how each cat has its own unique personality!
I tend to end up with a CWA (Cat With Attitude). They like attention but only on their terms, will sit next to me but not lap cats. However I tend to be the same way and since they all pick me it really is a win win
Black short hair are the sweetest. Hands down.
Also consider the Japanese bob tail .
If you want a breed the cuddles. Look at egyptian mau. I have one, hes under my blankets non stop
Egyptian Maus are known for their affectionate nature!
Mine doesn't ever cuddle. She's playful and friendly but hands off. It can be disappointing. She's a Norwegian Forest Cat
I have a Burmese 😺
The best feline is the common domestic shorthair.
My cat is almost too cuddly! He smothers me! Lol. He’s black
I hope for a part two. 😸
Bombay all day!!🐈⬛
Almost all cat breeds are affectionate! Though tuxes are jekyl hydes! And my childhood ginger cat only liked my mom! Korats are one of the most affectionate cat breeds!
What about Scottish Fold cats? They are GORGEOUS and loving!
Scottish Fold is #3
In my experience, ginger cats and tabbies are the most cuddly.
Ragdolls have blue eyes. Those weren't Ragdolls.
You forgot to mention the cuddliest of the cuddliest kitties......the tuxedo. There is no other like them. You can keep your Burmese or Siamese or whatever they're called but the black & white cutie is the most affectionate.
What about the Kitty Cat?
The kitty cat is doing great! I'll be sharing an update on her soon, so stay tuned!
I would like to have a Siamese or Tonkinese
Persian cat
