One of the first things I noticed after migrating to New Zealand was New Zealanders are crazy about cats.
Just about everyone I know has a cat.
What more, multiple cat ownership is common!
The only people in Australia who have two cats are old spinsters.
When asked about this, New Zealanders sheepishly give as their excuse for getting the second kitten is one cat would get lonely during the day without a companion.
Cats such as the local cafe cat are so friendly in New Zealand. Routinely walking up to strangers in the street to get patted.
Not so in Australia where cats stay clear of strangers because many do not like them.
We plan to get a British shorthair.
My wife fell in love with British shorthairs at the national cat show. The British shorthair she liked in particular won best cat at show.
