The Norwegian Forest Cat is an ancient natural breed that at one time lived in the
woods of Norway. Due to lack of attention to the breed it almost
became extinct. It was
given championship recognition in l977 in Europe.
The Forest Cat is
muscular with a large body of medium length. The legs are
medium length with heavy muscles. The front legs are also
thick. The coat is double and water resistant. It is not
shaggy but uneven looking. Daily combing is necessary when
shedding but otherwise very little combing is required. This
cat takes care of itself.
You will find the Forest Cat only with longhair but in any
color combination with the exception of colorpointed, solid
lilac and chocolate.
