बच्चाहरु को लागि बिरालो नस्ल

For a child, a cat is suitable as a pet, which has the following qualities:

• Love for tactile sensations. The child will want to often touch and stroke his furry friend, so such close contact should not cause discomfort to the pet. 
• Tolerance and stress tolerance. This is especially useful for those cats who were placed in a house with a child under 3 years old. The kid can cry, scream, throw objects and carelessly handle the four-legged. It is important that the cat humbly endure everything that is destined for it, and not harbor evil against the child. 
• Absence of aggression (behavioral problems). Even an affectionate and sociable cat can use its claws if it is frightened or wants to protect itself. Not to mention the fact that some animals, for one reason or another, are prone to aggression and can bite or scratch even for no apparent reason. The presence of such a pet in the house is dangerous for the baby. 
• There is no strong sense of territoriality. Cats are territorial creatures. But someone will react calmly to the violation of borders, while someone will immediately attack. The second option is definitely not suitable for a family with a child. 
• Activity and playfulness. The mustachioed couch potato will constantly experience stress from being forced to run, play and entertain his little master. Therefore, stop at a cat that willingly plays and is ready to move for a long time. 
• Unpretentiousness. An older child can be entrusted with the care of a cat. This is a great opportunity to develop in him responsibility and love for his neighbor. But caring for a pet should not be difficult, otherwise the young owner will quickly get tired and lose interest in his tailed ward. 

Here are 5 cat breeds suitable for children as an example. 

According to all the above criteria, these 5 cat breeds are ideal.

“British” – one of the most popular breeds among families with children. By nature, the cat resembles a prim aristocrat – self-possessed and patient. 

The British cat will not worry if a heart-rending cry is suddenly heard in the house or the clatter of children’s feet suddenly thunders. 

Interestingly, British cats are more attached to children than to adult family members. The pet will watch with undisguised curiosity both the first steps of his little master and his successes in other matters, and will also gladly join his exciting game.

Ragdoll is one of the largest representatives of cat breeds. He is second only to the Savannah and Maine Coon. But do not let the large size scare sensitive parents: the ragdoll will never harm the baby. On the contrary, he will be happy to sit in an embrace with a little man, even if he persistently pinches his fur or pulls his mustache. 

Ragdolls have a curious feature: due to low muscle tone, they are able to go limp in the hands of a person. It looks like you are holding a rag doll. “Ragdoll”, by the way, is translated as “rag doll”.

• (Scottish Fold and Scottish Straight)

“Scotch” is not only a seductive beauty, she is also a wonderful nanny! 

The Scottish cat will be wholeheartedly devoted to its owners. She is affectionate and submissive. This purr will never demonstrate unpredictable behavior. 

Scotties are also smart and playful. What else do you need to become an ideal friend for a little inquisitive person? 

The Devon Rex is a modest and accommodating companion. He gets along even with other pets, not to mention a child. Curious eared with big saucer eyes loves to study the situation from the high corners of the house. 

The Devon Rex will get along well with kids, but will not have much love for them, preferring the company of adults. 

It should be borne in mind that Devon Rex are cold comrades. Because of their short coat, they can’t stand the cold. 

Like the ragdoll, the Siberian cat has a rather large size, but this pet does not require a large territory and space. And caring for a handsome Siberian is not so difficult. 

But not so much the appearance of the “Siberian” deserves attention as his character. The cat is unobtrusive, tactful, friendly, calm and peaceful. He is also quiet, so he will not disturb the sleeping baby with his “concerts”. The Siberian cat will feel great both in a private house and in a small apartment. Therefore, we can safely say that this breed is universal. It can be safely started as a friend for the baby. 

Although there are cats more suitable for children and less suitable, one should not forget about the individuality of each pet. Even a mongrel cat can become an ideal nanny if it is properly raised. At the same time, a purebred representative of the “breed for children” may turn out to be a bully. An important role is played not only by genetics, but also by upbringing and the environment in which the pet was formed. Belonging to the breed determines the propensity, not the guarantee.

Remember that it is important to worry not only about the safety of the child, but also about the well-being and comfort of the cat. Do not let the baby hit the pet, hold him too hard, throw toys at him, etc. Such an attitude does not chill even the most patient and humble cat. 

Take care of your loved ones, and let children’s laughter and contented purring reign in your home.
