Best Answer

Mixed breeds like domestic short/long/medium haired cats make great family pets. They have great personalities, they're playful, and friendly. They can be all different colours, sizes and coat lengths.

It's also a good idea to consider adopting a cat or kitten from a shelter, they are just as friendly and cute, and you will be giving them a second chance at life.

What type of cat is the best with family?

The best family cat really depends on your family's lifestyle and the personality of the cat. It is best to look at cats at animal shelters to see which one fits your or your family's personality and way of life. Breed doesn't really depict what sort of personality a cat has, although some breeds are better suited to family life than others, such as the Maine Coon, who is often described as a very patient, gentle breed that is very good with children.

There really is no correct answer for this. All cat owners believe their cat is the best. Really, the best cat is the one that suits an individual's lifestyle and personality. There is no overall best breed or type of cat. In my opinion, the best type of pet cat is the domestic shorthair or mixed breed, same thing, the ones with the light black and the white. But Estan7 you are correct.
