 In today's video, we are going to talk about the top 10 cutest cats in the world. The first traces of domesticated cats go as far back as 4400 BC spread all across Europe and Asia. Although cats have been around for thousands of years, some of the cutest cat breeds are a bit more recent. As any animal lover can tell you, cats are some of the most adorable creatures that have ever walked the face of the planet. While they might be difficult from time to time, they are also affectionate, playful, and fun to be with. People love cats because they have great personalities, a lovable nature, and they're one of a kind. They are a favorite pet for a number of reasons and their cuteness is chief among the list. Here are the lists of the top 10 cutest cat breeds in the world. 10. Ragdoll Cat. The ragdoll soft and limp body tends to disguise the fact that they can grow to a size of up to 20 lbs. They are best described as lovable oaf, and while they are sizable cats, they are also very sensitive. If you are in search of a feline companion who is also something of a big teddy bear, you will fall head over heels for the cuteness of the ragdoll. Just be sure not to leave them alone in dangerous situations, as they have zero ability to protect themselves. 9. Siberian Cat. These cats have their origins in Russia, specifically Siberia. Although this cat breed has been around for over 1,000 years, Siberians didn't come to the United States until 1990. Because they were used to surviving in harsh climates, Siberian cats are a larger size cat weighing in at 8-17 lbs. They also have a thick triple coat, which you should brush at least twice a week to prevent knots. This cat breed is sweet and calm and they can adjust to pretty much any environment. However, they are keen and agile, so try to provide mental stimulation. Siberian cats are totally mesmerizing. Fluffy, long, and shiny coats are what they have and yes they are indeed amazing cats. Undeniably, they are cuddly, as in they could purr for hours if you brush them. 8. Siamese Cat. Some cats seem to think that a purr or a friendly rub speaks louder than words. Measers are not of this school of thought, and are known for their talent for clearly communicating their ideas and desires to their human servants. They are super intelligent and if you don't give them something to do, they will find something to do that you may not approve of quite as much. This breed needs daily periods of play and interaction, it's critical to the Siamese's emotional and mental health, and well-being. They should not be left alone for long periods. This is not a breed you can pat on the head and leave for 12 hours. 7. Munchkin Cat. These little munchkins never actually grow that much. Munchkin's legs are truly broad and short, which makes them the perfect cat. The munchkin breed has burst onto the scene in recent years and while they are a fairly new breed, they have become one of the cutest because of their unique personalities. They slightly resemble the Persian and have a medium plush coat. Munchkin cats are adorable and lovable like many other breeds, except their legs are three inches shorter than usual. So if you're looking for a cute cat breed that stays small, they are a great option. Think of the munchkin breed as the doxons or corgis of the cat world. Their appearance is due to a genetic mutation, but this breed of cats doesn't suffer from spinal problems like dogs do. Because of their shorter than usual legs, these cats are about six to nine pounds. These cats have sweet depositions and are quite lovable and playful. Munchkins can have long or shorter coats, so you have to brush their coats accordingly. 6. Maine Coon Cat. This cat breed is a native of Maine. However, the ancestors of the Maine Coons used to sail in ships catching mice. There are various theories surrounding their origins. Some say Vikings transported them to North America before Columbus. While others say Maine Coons were brought to America on a ship that was supposed to transport Marie Antoinette to safety. Regardless of how they got there, Maine Coons are beloved cats. Maine Coons are quite large. They tip the scales at 9 to 18 pounds. They'll do everything from playing dead to impersonating bird noises to get your attention and owners of the Maine Coon treasure their company because they are always keeping them on their toes. Although these cats love affection, they won't necessarily stay glued to your lap. Since they're so smart, you can have fun trying to teach them tricks and make sure you give them plenty of toys.

American Bobtails became a recognized breed in 1989 by the International Cat Association. Since they're a mid-sized breed, you can expect them to weigh between 8 to 13 pounds. These cats are the perfect companion since they like to be social, and you can even train them to walk on a leash. They are also low maintenance, so all you have to do is brush them a few times a week. 4. British Shorthair Cat. The British Shorthair is a compact, well-balanced, and powerful cat with a short, very dense coat. They often convey an overall impression of balance and proportion in which no feature is exaggerated. If you're looking for a cat that will loot your refrigerator and swing dizzily from your chandeliers, then the British Shorthair is not for you. Some say the British Shorthair is the perfect household companion if you like a breed that's undemanding, not always underfoot or in your face. British Shorthairs like to keep a low profile. They are affectionate but not clingy, playful but not overactive. They are quiet, even tempered, and undemanding with a bit of typical British reticence, particularly when they're first introduced. 3. Himalayan Cat. Many of us remember the adorable Himalayan who portrayed Sassy in the classic film Homeward Bound and these cats are every bit as intelligent and cheeky as she was. They're large, round eyes give them a very innocent facial expression and you will have a hard time saying no to the pitiful faces that they have been known to make. While their short legs keep them from climbing and jumping like their larger counterparts, they are good-natured pets who you will enjoy having in your home. 2. Persian Cat. If you're looking for an elegant yet cute cat breed, you need to look no further than the Persian. To say that Persian cats have been around for a very long time would be an understatement. There are records or Persian cats that date back all the way to 1684 BC in Persia. These regal cats also became the favorite of the nobility, thanks to their unique appearance. Persians are weighing in at around 7 to 12 pounds. These cats also have adorable and quiet personalities which add to their appeal. Their soft fur and lazy nature make the Persian a great cat breed for owners who are looking for that long-awaited cuddled buddy for rainy days on the couch. They're not big on roaming around and as long as they have a nice, soft basket to sleep in, they are happy. The Persian's beautiful hair makes them more suited to indoor play and you will have hours and hours of fun simply petting them. Keep in mind that although Persian cats love to sit on your lap, they don't enjoy loud environments. 1. Scottish Fold Cat When we think of really cute cat breeds, it's impossible not to almost immediately go to the Scottish Fold. The Scottish Fold is another breed of cat that was born as a result of a genetic mutation. The Scottish Fold breed gets its name because the ears fold in. At the time the breed originated, vets were concerns these cats would suffer from ear infections or other related problems. But these cats have varying health conditions that are related to the shape of their ears. Scottish Folds are quite active and enjoy playing around and staying active. However, you can also expect them to enjoy time on your lap. Although all feline companions are adorable, these are some of the cutest cat breeds around.
