Which cat breed is right for you?
Formerly known as the Napoleon, the Minuet was created in 1996 by crossing Munchkins with Persian-group breeds — Persians, Himalayans, and Exotic Shorthairs. The result is a low-slung, round-faced cat weighing 5–9 pounds with the sweet, doll-like expression of a Persian on a compact Munchkin frame. Minuets come in both longhair and shorthair varieties, in every color and pattern imaginable — from pointed to bicolor to solid.
Minuets inherit the gentle, easygoing nature of their Persian ancestry combined with the energetic curiosity of the Munchkin. They are affectionate without being demanding, happy to sit on your lap but equally content chasing a feather toy across the room. They do well in households with children and other cats, rarely displaying aggression or territorial behavior.

The Sphynx originated in Toronto, Canada, in 1966 when a domestic cat gave birth to a hairless kitten due to a natural genetic mutation. Through careful breeding with Devon Rex and other cats, the Sphynx was established as a robust breed. Weighing 6–12 pounds, this medium-sized cat is famous for its apparent hairlessness — though most Sphynx have a fine layer of peach-fuzz that gives their skin a warm, suede-like texture. Their wrinkled skin, lemon-shaped eyes, enormous ears, and pot belly give them an unmistakable extraterrestrial appearance.
Sphynx cats are extroverted clowns that crave human attention and warmth — literally, as they seek out body heat and will burrow under blankets or curl up on any available lap. They are fearless, social, and endlessly entertaining, performing acrobatic feats and greeting everyone — including strangers — with enthusiasm. They do wonderfully with children, dogs, and other cats.
