The American Shorthair Cat
American Shorthair is a domestic cat breed. It is very popular in United States.
A shorthaired felid, American Shorthair is one of the commonest
house cats in United States. It traces its origin to British Shorthairs
who were brought over on ships with European settlers owing to their
good hunting skills. With time these adept hunters moved into cities
and started being bred for their good looks, health and temperament.
Initially they were known as Domestic Shorthairs. However, with time as
issues of pedigree and pure breeding started taking ground, they were
given the name of American Shorthair to distinguish them from
non-pedigreed alley cats.

feline breed. The cat is still in relatively initial stages as an
official domestic feline breed and is still not formally recognized by
many registration bodies of cat fancies. In fact its discovery began as
recently as the mid nineteen eighties when officials of Brazilian Cat
Federation realized the need for a native cat of Brazil. They began
comparing and surveying alley cats across the country and found that
they were remarkably similar in their appearance and traits. Thereafter
the preservation and maintenance of purebred Brazilian Shorthairs was
started in earnest.
