The British Longhair shares the sturdy British build and generally calm temperament of the British Shorthair, with a semi-long coat that needs a more regular grooming routine.

Coat and daily comfort

• Comb the coat two to three times a week, adjusting the frequency for the individual coat and any tangles behind the ears, under the legs, across the chest and around the hindquarters.
• Provide fresh water, ventilation and cool resting areas, and check the skin while grooming so coat or skin changes are noticed early.

Body condition and ongoing care

• Use measured portions, daily play and routine veterinary care to support a healthy body condition.
• Keep the kitten’s own parent, health and handover records with your veterinarian so future care follows its documented history.
