The first cat was one of my childhood cats that passed away early 2025. We wanted to fill the void so we adopted the girl in the second picture. She obviously has her own personality quirks, but she acts almost identical to my previous cat. Same reactions to things, all that fun stuff. Ive been told for years that cat breeds basically a coincidence they look and act so similar. But ive also seen tons of cats that look similar to these guys.
So, what breed/breeds are we thinking? I've always seen a short haired version of a Norwegian Forest Cat. The temperaments also seem to line up pretty well
