Cat Fancy | Cat Breeds Gallery & Wallpapers

🐾 Welcome to the world of cats!

Cats are among the most mysterious and graceful creatures on Earth. For centuries they have been our companions, bringing warmth, comfort and independent friendship. On this website we present 12 popular breeds – with photos, facts and even free HD wallpapers.

🎉 Fun fact: Cats sleep about 16 hours a day, yet they are always ready to play and hunt. And their purring reduces stress in humans.

🎉 Fun fact: Did you know that a person who loves cats is called an ailurophile? This is derived from the Greek word for cat. Are you an ailurophile? We certainly are!

The annual "Cat Fancy Event" brings together cat lovers from all over the world. Breed shows, exhibitions, lectures by zoopsychologists and – of course – meetings with furry stars. This year we've created a digital gallery for twelve breeds so that everyone can enjoy the beauty of cats online.
