Here she is - my little Norwegian Forest Cat. She is only a year old and small but leggy like a teenager. Norwegian Forest Cats have an unusual temperament - they love to be in company with humans and other animals. Mine has struck up a loyal friendship with another of my cats and they play like children in the garden. She is very gentle and never shows her claws - she follows us like a little dog, but she is so silent and light on her feet that sometimes she gets accidentally stood on! She is too polite to hold a grudge and is soon back weaving round our ankles. Eventually she will grow a double coat and become quite large, but Norwegian Forest Cats can take five years to achieve their maturity.
Animals can have a fine sensitivity to the suffering of their owners. Many bereaved people have reported how much they have deepened in their relationship with their pets and how grateful they have been for their friendship.
