Purebred and purebred (mixed) cats are two main types of cats, and each comes with its own advantages and disadvantages. Here are the differences and characteristics of each type:

Purebred cats
1. Definition:
Purebred cats are cats that have been declared non-breed according to certain breed standards, usually by recognized organizations such as CFA (Cat Fanciers' Association) or TICA (The International Cat Association).

2. Physical characteristics:
Appearance: Purebred cats come in a wide variety of looks, depending on the breed. They have unique physical characteristics such as height, length or body size, ear shape and fur patterns.
Colors and patterns: Many breeds offer a wide variety of colors and fur patterns that characterize the breed.

3. Character and behavior:
Character: Each breed can be known for a certain character. For example, Siamese are considered very social, while Mayan Ko are considered quieter.
Behavior: Purebred cats can be less flexible in their behavior and may need more attention or exercise, depending on the breed.
4. Prices:
Purebred cats are often more expensive, as they come from reputable breeders and have pedigree certificates.

Mixed cats
1. Definition:
Mixed cats (no breed) do not belong to a specific breed, and they result from crosses between different breeds.

2. Physical characteristics:
Appearance: Mixed cats can look very different from each other, as they do not have fixed physical traits. They can be small or large, with short or long fur, and in varied colors.
Diversity: There are mixed cats with many racial traits, which gives them a high physical diversity.

3. Character and behavior:
Diversity in character: The character of mixed cats can be more diverse. They can be social or independent, depending on the nature of the individual.
Flexibility: Mixed cats tend to be more flexible and may require less attention than purebred cats.
4. Prices:
Mixed-breed cats are usually cheaper, and can sometimes be adopted from organizations or shelters for free.

Summary
The choice between a purebred cat and a mixed cat depends on your needs and lifestyle. Purebred cats offer precise traits and known character, while mixed cats offer variety and many possibilities. In the end, it is important to choose the cat that suits you best and that you can provide him with a happy and healthy life.
