Oriental cat: a child in the body of an alien cat (7 photos)
An oriental cat is when the paws and ears enter the room first, and then the rest of the cat. They look like aliens and behave like capricious spoiled children. 
You can't be indifferent to this breed: even avid dog lovers will appreciate their original appearance and crazy character. You can't pass by: today we'll figure out where to put the comma for this breed!
When choosing a pet, many people focus solely on appearance. But with orientals, this guideline won't work! In addition to the unusual triangular muzzle, huge ears and a long nose, which the animals often stick into other people's business, Orics have a lot of breed features. Are you ready to put up with them? 
What are you looking at? Do you think she would cook normally without my supervision?
First of all, Orientals meow a lot. More precisely, they SCREAM CONTINUOUSLY in a squeaky and very loud voice. The whole family and neighbors within a radius of several floors will hear. And if ordinary cats can be calmed down by pouring food into a bowl, Orics scream just for the sake of it. And all because the ancestors of the breed are the same talkative Siamese cats. 
Secondly, these cats need to move a lot. But always in company! And this company must certainly be the owner. Orientals can go wild with other whiskered ones, but they will still demand endless games and catch-up from you. Orics love to bring a fetch, play with fishing rods, catch a hand under the blanket and attack heels. 
Do you still have doubts that cats are liquid?
Thirdly, orientals have absolutely no concept of personal space. More precisely, they value their personal space very much, but yours - absolutely not! It is important for long-nosed cats to spend all their time next to their owner, touch him with their paw, sit on his lap or play. And it is better to do everything together! 
Give me a high five! What do you mean, are you tired of giving it for half an hour straight?
You'll have to get used to the fact that you won't be able to sit quietly alone anymore. In the bathroom, in the toilet, while cooking or watching a TV series. This fluffy Velcro will always and everywhere be with you. But if the cat itself is in a bad mood and is not in the mood to communicate, you can get a clawed paw for trying to pet or cuddle it. 
Expert jury on going to the bathroom. Judging by the faces of the judges, you shouldn't expect a high score...
They say that oriental cats are very similar to dogs. But I'll tell you this: not every dog shows so much love and affection towards a person! Moreover, orics have a very interesting hierarchy of affection. They have their absolute favorite person among people, whom they idolize. In second place is a slightly less favorite person, to play with, sleep on and occasionally come to pet. Then come even less favorite people, whose attention the long-nosed one tolerates, but he himself very rarely approaches them. At the end of the hierarchy there will be guests and some family members, whom the cat cannot stand and will not even let near him.

Is it worth getting this breed? Definitely yes, if you are ready to devote all your time to the animal. Cats do not tolerate loneliness well, and even your eight-hour work day will be a burden to them. It's like living with a 3-5 year old child who constantly follows you around and demands your attention. Only children grow up, and orientals stay like that their whole lives.
