British Shorthair for Sale – Meet Rio
1. Sociability Rio is super easygoing with other cats, including males, females, and kittens. He enjoys lying down with the group and sharing peaceful moments, especially when there is sunshine.
2. Independence Rio is not an independent cat. He likes being around other cats and especially around us. He often stays close at a comfortable distance, then comes over to greet you when he feels like it.
3. ActivityLevel He is not overly active. Even as a young kitten, he did not go crazy for teaser wands or toys. He prefers relaxed exploration.
4. Vocalization Rio is more vocal than our average kittens. When you call his name, he often responds with a little meow, almost like he is having a conversation with you.
Rio is a golden point shaded British Shorthair boy with a big round head and bright blue eyes. He has that soft, friendly look people fall for right away, and his day to day personality is just as easy. Rio settles into routines quickly, keeps play gentle, and prefers calm company over wild energy, which makes him a great match for families with children who want a steady, affectionate family member.
He also has a funny little “rules” personality that makes him even more lovable. Rio adores being petted. He will roll over, show his belly, and invite you to keep going, but he does not enjoy being hugged in the way that lifts all four feet off the ground. He likes feeling grounded, almost like he needs his paws connected to the earth to feel secure. When you respect that, he is surprisingly cooperative. Nail trims and even tooth brushing go smoothly as long as most of his feet can stay in contact with a stable surface.
Rio is friendly with both people and other animals, with no aggressive behavior. He enjoys interaction and often meows back when you call his name, like he is answering you. He likes staying close and soaking up gentle pets, but he prefers to keep his dignity on the ground rather than being carried around.
Rio’s Look. Big Head, Blue Eyes, Plush Coat
Rio has a big, round, chubby face with ocean blue eyes and broad set ears that sit nicely on his head. One detail I love is his eye shape. It has a gentle almond outline, but still keeps a round British softness, a trait he inherited from his father, Teddy. His nose has a smooth curve that makes his mouth and muzzle look extra full and chubby. His coat is short, dense, and plush, giving him that classic teddy bear texture many people expect from the British Shorthair breed.
Golden Point Color That Changes with Temperature
Rio is a golden point British Shorthair, so his color is not a “fixed paint.” His body stays a soft rice white base, while the golden and grey tones show more clearly on the face and other point areas. When the weather gets cooler, those points usually deepen and look more golden, especially around the mask, the ear edges, the tail tip, and the paws. It is one of those coats that keeps surprising you a little as he grows, and it makes taking monthly photos genuinely fun.
Strong Build and Champion Bloodlines
Rio has that classic British Shorthair “heavy in a good way” feeling. He is compact, thick through the legs, and solid when you pet him. His coat also has a clean shine and dense texture that you can feel right away. For people who care about champion bloodlines, the real value is not just a title on paper. It is how consistent the type stays, how correct the structure is, and whether the temperament is stable in daily life.
Healthy Appetite and Feeding Routine
Rio eats well and keeps a steady routine with dry food plus canned food. His digestion has been reliable, and his body condition shows he is thriving. Good feeding habits early on are not only about size. They support even growth, help maintain a rich coat, and build the foundation for that strong British Shorthair frame families love.
Rio’s Parents. Teddy and Shining
Rio comes from a responsible breeding program with proven lines. His parents are Teddy and Shining, two British Shorthair cats known for strong structure, great coats, and sweet temperaments.
Teddy – British Shorthair King
Name: Teddy
Gender: Male
Color: Golden Shaded (NY11)
Breed: British Shorthair
Teddy is the kind of male that looks “British” the moment you see him. He has large emerald green eyes, chubby cheeks, a perfectly round face, and neat ear placement that matches the breed standard. At home he is gentle and calm, and he is famous for his dramatic belly flop when he wants rubs. He earned his TICA Champion title at his very first highly competitive show, which speaks to his balance, body, and plush coat quality. Most importantly, he passes on his classic look and sweet personality to his kittens in a very consistent way.
Shining – Sweet, Strong Queen
Name: Shining
Gender: Female
Color: Golden Point Shaded (NY1133)
Breed: British Shorthair
Shining is a golden point shaded queen with a medium build and a soft, sweet expression. She has excellent coat quality, strong structure, and a temperament that stays gentle and friendly. Her golden point shading develops cleanly and evenly, with warm tones that photograph beautifully over time. In her kittens, she tends to pass on that soft face, stable character, and the golden point style that makes this color so special.
