British Shorthair Cat VS. Brazilian Shorthair Cat.

What are the differences between these two cat breeds?


Full of British reserve, the British Shorthair cat has a quiet voice and is an undemanding companion. While not overly affectionate, the British Shorthair tends to get along just fine with everyone. They’re mellow and will tolerate other pets, and even though they may not seek out snuggles at every opportunity, they’re happy to be scooped up for a good cuddle.

The Brazilian Shorthair is a purebred cat from, as you may have guessed, Brazil. These felines are known for being smart, affectionate, and energetic. The Brazilian Shorthair has roots going back to the everyday street cats of Brazil. This is a charismatic and outgoing feline who’s happy to engage in human interaction. These cats have lots of street smarts and are very curious creatures, so you’ll need to be able to provide a home environment that’s full of playtime with room to explore.


With his short, thick coat, round head and cheeks, big round eyes, and rounded body, the British Shorthair resembles nothing so much as a cuddly teddy bear. His body is compact but powerful with a broad chest, strong legs with rounded paws, and a thick tail with a rounded tip. The coat comes in just about any color or pattern you could wish for, including lilac, chocolate, black, white, pointed, tabby, and many more. The bestknown color is blue or gray, and the cats are sometimes referred to as British Blues. The shorthair does not reach full physical maturity until he is 3 to 5 years old.

The Brazilian Shorthair's coat can be seen in a very wide range of colors that include black, brown, gray, orange, and white. The coat also comes in just about any type of pattern you can imagine.

When it comes to grooming, the Brazilian Shorthair is a very lowmaintenance kitty. You can brush their coat once a week, which will help lessen the chances of hairballs or mats forming.

When it comes to climate, the Brazilian Shorthair is generally seen as an adaptable feline. Although, make sure to always provide adequate shade and sufficient freshwater during the hotter months.


The British Shorthair is mellow and easygoing, making him an excellent family companion. He enjoys affection, but he’s not a “me, me, me” type of cat. Expect him to follow you around the house during the day, settling nearby wherever you stop.

Full of British reserve, the Shorthair has a quiet voice and is an undemanding companion. He doesn’t require a lap, although he loves to sit next to you. Being a big cat, he isn’t fond of being carried around.

This is a cat with a moderate activity level. He’s energetic during kittenhood but usually starts to settle down by the time he is a year old. More mature British Shorthairs are usually couch potatoes, but adult males occasionally behave like goofballs. When they run through the house, they can sound like a herd of elephants. British Shorthairs are rarely destructive; their manners are those of a proper governess, not a soccer hooligan. They welcome guests confidently.

As you'd expect from a breed with street cat roots, the Brazilian Shorthair is a cocky feline who's confident and outgoing. This extends to their relationship with humans and kids. This is a cat who enjoys being around people and will do its best to become a big part of your day to day life.

Always wanting to be the center of attention, the breed will happily attempt to persuade the kids to engage in play sessions as often as possible, but they're also content to snuggle up on the couch when it's time to rest and relax.

The Brazilian Shorthair is an inherently curious and inquisitive cat, especially when it comes to exploring new environments. So make sure you have enough space to keep the cat on its toes. As a smarterthanaverage feline, the Brazilian Shorthair also benefits from smart interactive toys, and in some cases, owners have managed to teach the breed to perform tricks.
