Finding a responsible British Shorthair breeder in New York

A sturdy, round-faced breed with a dense, plush coat and an easy-going, undemanding personality.

When comparing British Shorthair breeders, ask how young animals are raised, which health checks are performed on the parents, and what veterinary, vaccination, registration, and return-policy documentation comes with each animal. A responsible breeder should welcome questions, explain their breeding goals clearly, and allow you to meet the animal and its parent where practical.

• Which breed-appropriate health screenings have the parents completed?
