The American Shorthair cat is known for quite a few things including its ability to chase mice, its short hair, and its overall good health and longevity. The American Shorthair is said to be one of the healthiest breeds with very few genetic or hereditary health conditions. The cat requires little vet care other than routine physicals, vaccinations, and dental cleanings. This does not mean your American Shorthair will never get sick. If you ever suspect your cat is ill, please call your vet and schedule a checkup right away. In general, most American Shorthairs can live around 15 years. They are low maintenance and require little grooming. They are quite loving and loyal. They are smart and hard working as well. They love to be part of the conversation and also do well on their own for short times. For more information about this breed, call your Webster, NY veterinarian.
