What is the best type of cat for a middle-aged woman who lives in an air conditioned condo in Hawaii?

u cant beat a maine coon.they have laid-back,mellow personalities and are very affectionate.they follow u around like a dog,but dont yowl and make a lot of noise,they dont meow much at all.they litter-box train easily and adapt well with dogs,children and various visitors and family members.they are also inclined to live long lives.our female maine coon is 18.we just brought her in for her yearly check and she is in gr8 health.she amused herself in the waiting room by jumping on peoples laps to say hello and saying hi to their dogs,too.look up maine coons online for more info.bear in mind ,a female cat,tho it will need to be spayed,may be a better choice.having grown up with family cats and having them all my life,our experience with males includes spraying of urine in both fixed and intact males,and serious urinary blockages that can require costly operations.while a female cat of any age can also get urinary tract infections,they are milder in females as a rule.in males,they can be serious,expensive and even fatal.our female cats have lived long,healthy lives,so i would opt for a female.dont get a siamese or himalayan-they nervously "yowl" and can lead neighbors to complain.maine coons are semi-fluffy-medium long hair-so they appreciate ac and dont get too cold.good luck!

It's hard to tell with cats, LOL. They all have different personalities. Try getting an older cat, not a kitten, but one that's calmed down already and won't be tearing through her house, ripping up the furniture and causing a ruckus. Also, it's VERY important that the animal is spayed/neutered when you give it to her. Females will go into heat (which even if she won't be exposed to males, is incredibly annoying) and will put her at a higher risk for developing cancers. A male will pee on everything to mark his territory, and may actually do so if he was allowed to go through puberty before the neuter.

I breed and show BIrmans, and they are absolutely ideal for your kind of situation, but if you are not particular about a breed I always recommend saving the life of a shelter kitty instead. What you might do is try to adopt a kitty who comes from a situation like yours, where maybe the previous owner was someone similar to you in age and lifestyle. Barring that, if you are up to it you might want to consider offering to be a foster home for a rescue group, with the option of adopting. That way you get to help cats in need, and if you find one that you think is your perfect pet, you can adopt it. My mother did this with dogs (and wound up adopting the first dog she fostered).

I'd say any kind is good, but a female cat is best. Tell this person to go to the Humane Society and check it out herself, so she can choose. There are so many there... for only $55 (+$10 licensing). They have adult cats there and kittens.

Just go hang out at a shelter and ask to let several cats be let out of their cages. That way she can mingle with the cats and get to know their personalities and find the best one for her.

Usually breed doesn't matter so much as personality.

Nor am I a desperate housewife, i'm single, stable finding, trim company parent - a procedures from desperate

older cats are usually calmer while kittens are more restless and playfull, if you dont want to have to constantly be playing with the cat or you're out alot, get an older cat, if you want a playfull pal, i suggest a kitten
