Cats are all over the internet and their popularity has just been growing. It is easy to find hours and hours of cat videos on the internet, which proves how much they are loved.
They have a reputation for being aloof but ask any cat owner and they’d tell you that cats are just as clingy and adorable as dogs. The Midlands is home to several thousands of pets and the number of pet owners went up in the last couple of years.
As people were stuck at home, they found feline friends, who can be indoor or outdoor or both. Many people just get adopted by a cat and have no say in the breed - which is why domestic cats are the most popular in the Midlands. Admiral’s Pet Insurance internal data shows the top 10 most popular pet cat breeds in Midlands homes and here they are:
1. The domestic shorthair is the most popular cat breed in the Midlands
