Napoleon Cat - Cat Breed

Complete Guide to the Napoleon Cat

The Napoleon Cat (now officially known as the Minuet) is a breathtakingly adorable, highly unique dwarf breed created by crossing Munchkin cats with Persians. They possess the incredibly short, stubby legs of the Munchkin combined with the massive, round doll-face and plush coat of the Persian, making them an immensely popular cat breed.

Temperament and Care

The Napoleon is the ultimate, comical lap cat. They are brilliantly smart, highly affectionate, and famously sit up on their hind legs like a rabbit. Choosing cute, whimsical cat names is perfect for them. Essential pet care requires keeping them strictly indoors, as their short legs prevent them from jumping high to escape predators. Their incredibly plush coat requires daily brushing.

Is the Napoleon Cat Right for You?

• Pros: Incredibly adorable doll-face, highly playful, and deeply affectionate companions.
