Summary
About Australian Mist
Australian Mist cats are medium, sturdy indoor companions with a short, soft, misted or marbled coat. Calm, affectionate and people‑focused, they suit families, apartments and multi‑pet homes. They need moderate play, simple weekly grooming and routine vet care to stay healthy into old age.
About Oriental Long Hair
Oriental Longhairs are elegant, longhaired relatives of the Siamese, with slim, athletic bodies, wedge heads, and large ears. They have silky, easy‑care coats in many colors, are intelligent, playful, very vocal, people‑oriented, and thrive on active, interactive homes.
