Havana Brown

Cat breed profile

The Havana Brown cat was developed in the 1950s in the UK by crossing Siamese and domestic black cats to achieve its distinctive chocolate-brown coat. Known for its affectionate and intelligent nature, this breed enjoys interactive play and social interaction. Their short, soft coat requires minimal grooming, making them relatively low maintenance. Havana Browns are adaptable and generally do well in apartments or homes with families. They benefit from regular veterinary care and a balanced diet to maintain their health and energy levels. Ideal for first-time cat owners, they thrive in environments where they receive attention and mental stimulation.
