Friendliest Cat Breeds

Friendly cats are not limited to the following breeds, but the ones listed here are among the sure-fire softies.

1 - Persian

The Persian cat is sociable and loving
The highly sociable and friendly Persian cat

Persian cats are friendly, sociable and can be very loving. They enjoy snuggling up with their favourite human and many have a very laid back and relaxed nature. This is definitely a cat that looks forward to you getting back from work so you can pay them some attention.

A great big softie - the Maine Coon loves lots of attention

Confident and affectionate, without demanding attention (like certain other breeds!) Likes to hold a conversation, with a repertoire of meows.

6 - Ragdoll

Friendliest breed? Quite possibly. Laid back and cuddly, the perfect companion cat. Affection + lap = happy cat.

7 - Sphynx

The Sphynx is super-friendly, and is probably the most reliant on humans of all breeds.

8 - Non-Pedigree Cats

A cross-breed cat can be incredibly friendly if you treat it well
Many cross-breed cats prove to be as friendly as could be, given a loving home and plenty of attention

You might think finding a friendly cross-breed cat was a lottery. But the fact is, most cats will turn our friendly and affectionate as long as you treat them right and show lots of affection yourself.

Looking to adopt a Maine coon kitten or Persian or rag doll

My last kitty was a feral Siamese. She lived with me 13 years. I have had two Abby./cats and several mixes. As a senior citizen I am looking for a new friend. As I have a small apartment, I don’t have trees to climb. Send me an email if you have a kitten or a cat that wants a new home.

I have a 10 month old Ragdoll male kitten. He is the sweetest, most lovable cat to ever walk the planet... LOL. He’s loyal and comes when called like a dog does, and can sense when I’m sad or not feeling well. I have 3 cats, but never met another feline like my Ragdoll Archie. He’s awesome. I highly recommend these kitties to anyone who wants a cat who loves you like a dog.
