    I love this chanel and I love British Shorthairs, but you guys put a lot of Scottish Folds (and likely Scottish Straights) in the clips of this video. I'm not complaining as I own a Scottish Fold aswel as a Scottish Straight and appearance and character wise they are pretty much the same as British Shorthairs exept for the folded ears of course.

      Hi Tamara. 😺 It can be tricky to work with stock footage. For example, an artist might label a British Shorthair/Scottish Fold mix as just a British Shorthair or the artist may have simply mislabeled it. It happens! But thanks for your good eye. We try our best. 🐈

    It’s a shame you can’t be bothered to show British shorthair in your images instead of Scottish folds and Persians. And no mention of bi-colour shorthairs. Ours made me turn the thing off when he realised that.

    We had a British Shorthair called Korky when I was a child. He was an absolute darling of a cat, so gentle and patient. Now and again I would put a baby doll's bonnet on him and push him down the road in my Silver Cross doll's pram; one day he had had enough, jumped out and ran all the way home with the bonnet still on. 😙🐱❤❤❤💕
