Low energy cat breeds are ideal if you're the sort of person who's looking for a feline friend that's more chill than chase. While all cats can make wonderful companions, different breeds behave in different ways, so knowing what sort of cat would best suit your lifestyle can go a long way in ensuring you and your kitty get on.

While even cat breeds with relaxed and calm temperaments require a daily dose of exercise in the form of time spent with a few of the best interactive cat toys, low-key breeds tend to be well suited to those who live in small apartments, parents who are very busy with small children, seniors looking for a lap cat companion, or anyone who simply enjoys the peace and quiet.
