Which cat breed is right for you?
The Cymric (pronounced "kim-rick") is the longhaired variety of the Manx, originating from the Isle of Man in the Irish Sea where tailless cats have existed for centuries. This medium-to-large, solidly built breed weighs 8–13 pounds and is notable for its complete lack of tail — or, in some cases, a short stub — caused by a natural spinal mutation. Their semi-long, double coat is dense and plush, coming in virtually every color and pattern except pointed.
Cymrics are gentle, playful cats with a devoted, dog-like loyalty to their families — they are known to follow their owners from room to room and even come when called. They are excellent with children and other pets, and their calm yet playful nature makes them well-suited to family life. Many Cymrics are fascinated by water and enjoy watching or playing with running faucets.

The Nebelung — German for "creature of the mist" — is a rare, elegant breed developed in the 1980s in the United States from longhaired Russian Blue-type cats. Weighing 7–11 pounds, this medium-sized cat has a long, graceful body, vivid green eyes, and a stunning blue-gray double coat with silver-tipped guard hairs that shimmer in the light. The dense, silky fur forms a noticeable ruff around the neck and plume on the tail.
Nebelungs are gentle, reserved cats that form intense bonds with their chosen people but can be shy around strangers. They are creatures of routine — happiest when meals, playtime, and quiet hours follow a predictable schedule. Once comfortable, they are playful and affectionate, often following their favorite person from room to room like a silent blue shadow.
If a serene, silver-coated companion speaks to your soul, search for Nebelung cats on Puplister and find your misty match.
